Vision of the Rebels During 1857 Engelska 2008

The centrality of this book is the 'vision of the revolutionaries' as manifested in their writings in archival records, their syncretic vision, miraculous modes of communications, the working of their government, and the nature and immensity of this Great War, with its pan Indian extent. The twin goals of the war were ousting the firangi lootere (foreign looters) and establishing a Hindustan of Hindus and Muslims; of a spacious and absorptive idea of Hindustan where the multifarious castes and sects were all intergrated and assured of the safety of their life, religion, honour and property exemplified the extraordinary vision of the rebels.
