| Summary, etc | An Olympian army officer is ambushed and lost in the mountains during the 1962 India–China war. Yet he makes an incredible comeback and wins an Olympic gold.<br/><br/>Amidst the 2006 insurgency in Kashmir, a militant gives up terrorism for love. He strikes an unlikely friendship with an army officer, who gives him a second chance at life.<br/><br/>An Indian soldier in WWII defies the odds. He cheats death on land and sea in a scintillating series of captures and escapes. His unconquerable spirit shines through this remarkable journey.<br/><br/>These fascinating stories from battlefields near and far have been lost and forgotten, or rarely recorded for the history books. Spanning over a century of conflicts – from the ravaged terrains of Italy and France during the World Wars to the icy summits of north India’s borderlands and to Indian cities gripped by terror attacks – this book excavates and presents hidden stories from India’s military past.<br/><br/>Compiled from personal interviews and a wealth of archival material, this collection is plotted alongside the arc of India’s journey in the last hundred years.<br/><br/>Surprising and heart-rending, these are tales of undaunted courage, loyalty and sacrifices made in the cauldron of war. A vivid and compelling book, Camouflaged reminds us that in the end, hope triumphs over despair<br/><br/>https://www.amazon.in/CAMOUFLAGED-Forgotten-Battlefields-Probal-DasGupta/dp/9353453453 |
