Mohindra S. Chowdhry begins his book by exploring the Sikh revolt against the Mughal Empire. He demonstrates how this revolutionary movement proved not that Sikhs were opposed to Islam, but that Sikhism stood for basic human rights, liberty and freedom to follow the religion of their choice.
The book also shows how Sikhs eventually allied themselves to the British, after first battling it out with them in the hills and plains of the Punjab.
