About this listen

 Fifteen Brave Men and Women of Bharat who Never Succumbed to the Challenges of Invaders But were Lost and Forgotten in the Annals of History. These are the stories of those Bravehearts who Fought to Protect their Rights, Faith and Freedom.History has always been the handmaiden of the victor. 'Until the lions have their own storytellers,' said Chinua Achebe, 'the history of the hunt will always glorify the hunter!' Exploring the lives, times and works of the fifteen long-forgotten and mostly neglected unsung heroes and heroines of our past, this book brings to light the contribution of the warriors who not only donned armour and burst forth into the battlefield but also kept the flame of hope alive under adverse circumstances.Narrating the tales of valour and success that India, as a nation and civilization, has borne witness to in its long and tumultuous past, the book opens a window to the stories of select men and women who valiantly fought against invaders for their rights, faith and freedom.Rajarshi Bhagyachandra Jai Singh of Manipur, Lalitaditya Muktapida of Kashmir, Chand Bibi of Ahmednagar, Lachit Barphukan of Assam, Begum Hazrat Mahal of Awadh, Rani Abbakka Chowta of Ullal, Martanda Varma of Travancore, Rani Rudrama Devi of Warangal, Rani Naiki Devi of Gujarat and Banda Singh Bahadur are some of the 'bravehearts' who fought to uphold the tradition and culture of their land.Pacy and unputdownable, Bravehearts of Bharat chronicles the stories of courage, determination and victory, which largely remained untold and therefore unknown for a long time.

Hero’s of India came to light through this book. Wonderfully chronicled tales of brave hearts who were in obscurity for most of us. A must read book & revisit our glorious past.

A untold part of Indian history. Values and ethical code of conduct has been the backbone of Bhartiya culture

Outstanding

Great research. Excellent information that we never got to know for decades in a left dominated history writers syndicate. Glad that someone is writing about people we must really know. Hats off to to Vikram Sampath.

However the narrator has done a crappy job. He couldn't pronounce any name correctly. No homework done. Poor editing also. Mistakes done and lines re-read by the narrator are not edited. What a let down for a wonderful book!

Excellent book let down by poor narration

Great peek into our past , the omission of which our education system is to blame. However, the narration really disappoints. I have never in all the audiobooks I’ve listened to, heard a single error. This one has so many , it’s a wonder that it was allowed to be published or whatever they say for audiobooks. It comes across like it’s been done in a hurry with no pauses even between chapters. I stopped halfway into the second chapter. It’s a disservice to an otherwise worthy listen

Excellent glimpse of Indian history
