وصف الكتابPenguin Books India Pvt Ltd, India, 2009. Paperback. Condition: New. Language: English . Brand New Book. Trained in horse riding and the martial arts from an early age, Manu was married to Gangadhar Rao, the Maharaja of Jhansi, when she was thirteen. Soon after her husband s death, the reins of the kingdom passed on to her, and she took up this responsibility undeterred and fearless. When Jhansi faced the danger of annexation, she fought against the British with unflinching courage, losing her life in the course of the battle. She has since become one of the most inspiring heroes of the freedom struggle and a much-admired role model. Deepa Agarwal chronicles the life and times of this legendary character in a gripping narrative, drawing a colourful portrait of bravery. This riveting account also includes nuggets of information about the eventful year 1857, making for a fascinating read.
عن المؤلفDeepa Agarwal, nee Rawat, was born in Almora, Uttarakhand, a small town in the Himalayan region of India. Her father was a doctor and her mother a schoolteacher. One of six siblings, Deepa spent her childhood in the picturesque Kumaon region which forms the background of many of her books. Childhood escapades have provided material for stories like "Fire", which is about an incident when she and her friend accidentally set the pine forest around her home on fire. Deepa's family history too, has inspired books like CARAVAN TO TIBET. Her grandfather belonged to a nomadic tribe known as the Shaukas, who traveled to Tibet to trade. After he converted to Christianity and married an indigo planter's daughter, he had to leave his community and settled in Almora.
