"Patwant Singh gives us the compelling story of the Sikhs - their origins, traditions and beliefs, and more recent history. He shows how a movement based on tenets of compassion and humaneness transformed itself, of necessity, into a community that values bravery and military prowess as well as spirituality.".
"The author examines how, through the centuries, the Sikh soldier became an exemplar of discipline and courage and explains how Sikhs - now numbering nearly 20 million worldwide - have come to be known for their commitment to education, their business acumen, and their enterprising spirit.".
"Finally, Singh concludes that it would be a grave error to alienate an energetic and vital community like the Sikhs if modern India is to realize its full potential. He urges India's leaders to learn from the past and to "honour the social contract with Indians of every background and persuasion.""--BOOK JACKET.
