Singh does a great job of portraying both sides of the conflict. It’s balanced and insightful. Though the writing could be more engaging.

A detailed account of the war, but sometimes gets bogged down in minutiae. Still, a valuable resource for history buffs. The battlefield guides are a nice touch.

A gripping account of a relatively unknown war. Singh brings the battles and the people involved to life. I couldn’t put it down!

While factually sound, it was a bit of a slog to get through. The writing style is dense. It needs to be less academic, more accessible.
Dev Yadav –
An informative book, although a bit dry. I would’ve liked more personal stories from the soldiers. Still, a worthwhile addition to my collection.

Good book and well written. But some part of the war like Battle of Mudki not properly detailed. Overall I liked it.

A decent overview of the conflict. It left me wanting more in-depth analysis of certain battles. Worth a read if you’re new to this history.

A must-read for anyone interested in Sikh history. It offers a unique perspective on the war, although some parts feel repetitive.

The battlefield guides made the history come alive! The detail is incredible. A bit slow-paced in parts, but ultimately rewarding.

The book provides a solid overview, but I felt it lacked a certain narrative flair. The maps were helpful. It’s worth reading but not captivating.

I appreciated the depth of the historical context. But It was quite a dense read. Perhaps better suited for academic readers rather than casual readers.

Singh’s book is a comprehensive look at the Anglo-Sikh War. A compelling read that unveils the complex politics of the era and its legacy.
