costly for 200 pages of content ( excluding appendix reference) but good content
Every person ( especially hindus) should know this side of history which is deliberating being ignored in our history and focusing only on the good side of muslim rulers hence painting a rosy history.while muslims learn their history through madarasa hindus are being given a cleansed version of islamic rule through so called secular history books.No one is denying the islamic influence that is still in india ( Eg : biryani which we love it) but there is no reason to ban islamic atrocities from our history books.This book show all the violence commited by islamic invaders , their motives, their distrust on indian muslims and putting only turkic muslims in administartion and military psot

A well written book
This book is a must-read especially for those who are not used to reading but want to know about India. This book gives us a clear insight into the politics, psyche, and character of barbaric Arab and Turkic invaders; and the relentless resistance put forth by our valiant ancestors.Since the advent of Islam in the early 7th century CE, the geopolitics of the world shifted. within hundred years Arabs had captured North Africa, Iran, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Spain, etc but the Islamic juggernaut was stopped by our ancestors for 300 years. Arabs were defeated multiple times and were decimated by our warriors and Arabs were only able to capture small regions around Sindh till 1000 CE.It covers early Arab and Turkic invasions into India from the early 7th century to the late 13th century, starting from Mohammad bin Qasim till Ghiyas ud din Balban. We are taught by Marxist historians that the invaders literally walked over us with ease, that we didn't put any fierce resistance and peacefully converted to Islam due to many superstitions in Hinduism. This whole Marxist narrative is based on the debauchery of the so-called 'eminent historians'.This book shatters all these Marxist narratives in a fast-paced and concise way with a lot of academic references. This book shows you how our ancestors resisted the invaders, the sacrifices they made to protect the people, culture, temples, and traditions. It also points out the repeated mistakes committed by our ancestors.It's a gut-wrenching read knowing that thousands of Hindu, Jain, and Buddhist temples were destroyed and lakhs of people were made slaves, women and children raped, and millions were massacred.The only complaint I have about this book is its length. It's too short to put all the minute details about the period it tries to cover. Now I am eagerly waiting for book 2.

Riveting account of Barbaric Invasions
The author has done a brilliant work in tracing back the history of Muslim invasions on Bharatvarsh, from early failed attempts going as far back as 7th century AD to succesful attempts by Mahmud of Ghazni and Muhammad of Ghori in 11-12th century.The book is based on the writings of Muslims chroniclers and courtiers who wrote extensively about the invasion on Hind (Hindustan). The theme recurring in the book is of the bigoted and radical Muslims invaders coming to India, first to loot its wealth and later to convert this land of Idolaters and Idol worshippers to the land of One True Faith.The hate they carried for the religion practiced in Hind was beyond words. Muslim chroniclers have not hid their happiness and pleasure seeing the infidel kings getting defeated and their kingdoms becoming part of Islamic land. They have showered praises on the invading kings for destroying and demolishing temples and idols placed in temples. The killing of innocent people was justified invoking the religion.Mass killings, rape, pillage, plunder loot, forced conversion, temple demolitions is what done by the invading looters to the infidels of Bharatvarsha. This is clearly evident from the history written by the same people who committed these heinous atrocities.Must read book for every Indian.
