Almost forty authors have created this bilingual anthology titled as ‘Revolutionaries of India (1857-1947)’ in which they pay their literary tributes to revolutionaries. Many of the revolutionaries dauntlessly went to the gallows to liberate the country, fired by their junoon for the cause. One cannot find an appropriate word for the Urdu word junoon in English language. What was the thought process of these robust minds? How could a Bhagat Singh fast for 112 days in Mianwali Jail? This required enormous mental fortitude. The reader will find riveting stories of men and women and relive the forgotten sagas of sacrifice.
