Duryodhana, recognised his ability at archery and made him

Summary from back cover: The Kauravas had made a fateful

underestimated young Abhimanyu's determination and ability
to defend it. Brilliantly distilled in this handsome and
much-loved Pandava prince were his father Arjuna's courage,
Lord Krishna's wisdom, and the patience, strength and
gentle humility of his uncles. Even as he thwarted his
enemies' ambitions, Abhimanyu earned their grudging

abode on Mount Kailasa Lord Shiva travelled far and wide,
answering the prayers of his devotees. But he was often in
disguise to ensure that his favours went only to the

aside even the mighty Yama, god of death." -- Contents:

many Indian freedom fighters. Scores of revolutionaries
were exiled to this dreaded cellular prison which was in
Port Blair in the Andaman Islands. Veer Savarkar was one of
them. Hounded by the police from London to Marseilles and
then to India, he faced the most trying situations in his
untiring effort to fight British rule. But even the despair
and darkness of Kala Pani did not dim his courage. Veer
Savarkar found the most unique ways to motivate his prison
mates and keep their belief alive in an independent India."

was special. He was handsome, brave, talented, wise and a
devoted son and husband: in fact, he was the most perfect
of all men. Born to wealth and power, this hero of the
Ramayana was remarkably unspoiled by his good fortune. This
is because finely distilled in him were the exceptional
qualities of his forefather: Dilpa's single-minded
devotion, the warrior skills of Raghu, and the courage and
righteousness of the handsome Aja." -- Call no.: PN6790

Chandra Shekhar first confronted British authority. After
that there was no looking back. Assuming the surname 'Azad'
he and his band of revolutionaries did much to awaken in
the Indian people the desire for freedom. Martyred at the

stones by a deva for his good deeds. The deva also told him
that if the necklace broke the person who repaired it would
die. It happened as the king feared. The necklace broke and
Queen Chellana, who was wearing it, insisted that it be
repaired. Would anyone string the stones, even for a big
reward, and risk death? And if there was such a man, whould
the king honour his promise and give the reward to his
heirs? This Jain story is based on a retelling of tales
from the Agamas (Jain texts) by Muni Mahendrakumar." --

the Sikh rebellion against the Mughal Empire. For eight
years, he ravaged the whole of North India. The havoc he

Ahmed Shah Abdali hastened the decline of the once mighty
empire which helped the Sikhs to emerge as the rulers of
Punjab. Banda Bahadur thus paved the way for the foundation

web site): "In a time when brother was pitted against
brother, no family was more divided than the Booths. The
United States has become violently polarized. Political
fanaticism divides an embittered populace. A recently
elected President, an energizing symbol of change for some,
and a harbinger of the downfall of America for others,
stands at the center of the turmoil. It is 1865, and John
Wilkes Booth is about to assassinate the President of the
United States. From the pen of American historian C.C.
Colbert and the brush of French comics master Tanitoc comes
a thought-provoking perspective on one of the greatest
villains of U.S. History: a killer who was also an actor, a
lover, a doubter, and, in his own mind, a patriot." --
