Uncover the profound impact of colonial rule on Sikh sovereignty through the compelling story of Maharaja Duleep Singh. This essential book explores the 1880s efforts to reclaim the lost Khalsa Raj in Punjab, offering new ways to understand collective loss and resilience. Rajbir Singh Judge reveals how the Sikh tradition engaged with political and psychological loss through theology, literature, and practice, not merely to recover the past, but to remake it. A must-read for enthusiasts of Sikh history, Indian history, and postcolonial studies seeking to understand how dwelling within loss can forge new possibilities.
