The First World War is remembered to have been an event that changed the course of modern world history. Though the battles were fought across theatres in Europe and the Middle East, soldiers of the burgeoning Indian army made significant contributions on the various fronts - often laying down their lives to defeat an unknown enemy in an indecipherable war. In the 100 years that have since elapsed, the valour and selfless dedication of the Indian soldier has been lost in the pages of history. However, the truth remains that the Indians fought valiantly, in frigid climes and environments that were physically and culturally hostile. This book pays homage to the honour, fidelity, and sacrifice of these forgotten, fallen soldiers. Book jacket.
