Rajasthan, the picturesque land of the Rajputs, the arid and yet breath takingly beautiful land of brave men and women has fascinated the world with tales of heroism and courage of a people, who have a history of putting their honour above everything else. This is a fascinating collection of tales which are partly historical and partly derived from the repertoire of folk tradition of this region; stories about heroes and heroines who studded its glorious past and have now become legends. James Todd was one of the first Englishmen to associate closely with the culture and people of Rajasthan and from whose pen came the ever green volumes “Annals and Antiquities of Rajasthan”. This volume brings alive to the reader the tales of Rana Sanga, Samar Singh Rani Padmini, Rani Karnavati, Prithviraj Chauhan and a galaxy of other heroes who defended Ch ittor and Mewar and the women who contributed to its pride. These are tales of blood, sacrifice, glory and honour which remind us of bygone eras of true heroism and valour.
