<p>The Battles of Dograi and Batapore were fought just a few miles out of Lahore during the Indo-Pakistan War of 1965. They were as much a victory for the 3rd Battalion of the Jat Regiment on the Indian side as they were a disaster for the Pakistani troops who opposed this battalion and especially for 16th (Pathan) Battalion of the Pakistan Punjab Regiment, which was wiped out. The fighting was severe, with more than 975 Pakistani Soldiers killed. Few battles can match the Battle of Dograi and Batapore in the amout the sustained, intense Fire power which was used. Dograi and Batapore stand out in History for several reasons; there is probably no comparable instance where only 523 determined attackers have gone up against a determined attackers have gone up against a defending force not only vastly superior in Strength but also strongly entrenched in a built up defended area, 1000x800 yards in size and supported by a Large number of tanks and seemingly unlimited artillery support. The attack plan was thoroughly unconventional the almost every one of the attackers performed a feat of bravery at some time or the other during the assault. It has never happened before that such a small force has inflicted greater casualties on an enemy in the Ratio of 8:1. This first-hand Account of the Battle of Dograi and Bataporebrings forth one of the finest examples of the great warrior Tradition of the Indian Army, and deserves to be read by all nation-loving Indians, and others interested in was and outstanding soldiery.</p>

India's China War

<p>This is one of those rare books that puts an entirely new light on a chapter of history, and it must be read by anyone concerned with international affairs. Although cool and scholarly it unrolls like a fascinating thriller. It is an important work of revisionist history and a gruesome study of the way in which wars start, superbly documented (largely from official Indian sources but also from secret Indian papers) and beautifully sustained. By showing how India led the world up the garden path it demolishes and throws to the wind a pillar of the 'contain China' doctrine -- the belief that in 1962 India was the victim of unprovoked Chinese aggression. Maxwell's book is magnificent on every count, an historical achievement of the first rank.</p>
