The Battle Of Narnaul: Rao Tula Ram’s Secret Global Plot To Overthrow The British, 1857–1863

The Battle of Narnaul revisits one of the fiercest and most overlooked battles of 1857, marked by immense loss and forgotten heroes like Rao Tula Ram—a warrior and strategist whose story remains largely untold. For years, Tula Ram gathered resources, forged secret alliances with Rajputana kingdoms, and even sought support from Persia, Afghanistan, and Russia to challenge British rule. Through meticulous research and vivid storytelling, Kulpreet Yadav and Madhur Rao bring to life the valor and sacrifices of these unsung warriors, offering a gripping account of the battle and the relentless six-year resistance that followed. Clear, deeply researched, and compelling, this book is both a tribute to India’s forgotten fighters and an essential read for history enthusiasts and general readers alike. Kulpreet Yadav, a former Indian Coast Guard Commandant and acclaimed author of military history bestsellers like The Battle of Rezang La and The Battle of Haji Pir, joins historian Madhur Rao, whose passion for preserving cultural heritage enriches this narrative of courage and resilience.
