Honour Redeemed: And Other Stories from the 1965 Indo-Pak War

Autor Maj. Gen Dhruv Katoch
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 mar 2016
Honour Redeemed recalls the 1965 Indo-Pak war and the military engagements that preceded it with disarming honesty and candour. From the salt pans of the Rann of Kutch to the lofty peaks in Jammu and Kashmir; from the deserts of Rajasthan to the lush green fields of Punjab, stories emerge of battles fought with great courage and valour, told by the very men who fought that war half a century ago.
