Description
The digital edition of all books may be viewed on our website before purchase. This little book is written with the object of giving to the general public some idea of one of our most loyal Indian sects; though its numbers are comparatively few, yet it played no small share in upholding the traditions of the British Empire in no less than six theatres of war. No true picture would be complete without some account of the environment that has helped to mould the Sikh character. This environment is especially typical in the Ludhiana district, and it is there that some of the finest types of Sikh manhood are met with. Some attempt has been made to give the imitated pronunciation of the Punjabi words used. I take this opportunity of thanking Professor L.W. Lyde for having imbued me with some of the ideas on Economic Geography, and Captain Burgess, for giving me three photographs of Sikh wrestlers. Notice of errors will be most welcome.R. E.P. Oct., 1921.
