Is Udham Singh a good book?
Well written and researched book. As a Sikh born and raised in the Uk we are still brought up with the story of Udham Singh and Bhagat Singh. It’s great that the remarkable story of this man is being added to the mainstream discourse about Empire.

Does the life of Udham Singh need an introduction?
What. A. Book. It's been ages since I've read a non-fiction novel that reads like a thriller. Anita Anand has done a marvelous job, not only with her research but with her writing as well. I doubt the life of Udham Singh needs any introduction.

Who is Udham Singh?
Anita Anand has taken the anniversary as a great opportunity to tell the tale of one man, Udham Singh, allegedly a survivor of the massacre (though it's not 100% proven) and his 21-year plan to kill the men behind the killings.

Did you know the book was a semi autobiographical take on Udham Singh?
From the cover itself I didn't know the book was a semi autobiographical take on Udham Singh's life. The legend of Udham Singh is no stranger to South Asians, especially Punjabis of Northern India. His story has been adapted to many different films, television dramas and is the subject of many famous Punjabi songs and ballads.

On 13 March 1940, Michael O'Dwyer was scheduled to speak at a joint meeting of the East India Association and the Central Asian Society (now Royal Society for Asian Affairs) at Caxton Hall, London. Singh had entered the event with a ticket in his wife's name. Singh concealed a revolver inside a book, which had pages cut in the shape of a revolver. This revolver was purchased by him from a soldier in a pub. Then he entered the hall and found an empty seat. As the meeting concl…

Lately, I seem to have had much more luck reading nonfiction. In this case, this fascinating nonfiction book reads like a thriller. It is meticulously researched and cinematic. It’s also extremely educational. Frankly, I do not understand how Britain got away with its colonialism for so long. The first part of this book provides a mesmerizing and detailed account of just some of the barbarity of the Raj. Under British rule, self sufficiency in rural India was destroyed. “The peasant class, forming the majority of India’s population, found itself either starved of ancestral lands or reduced to the status of indentured labour, thanks to a system of punitive taxation. Farmers who continued to work the land were forbidden from growing edible crops. Instead, they were forced by their new foreign overlords to produce cotton and indigo, vital for Britain’s lucrative and growing textile industry.” Indians understandably objected to this, which led to the Indian Mutiny of 1857. In one incidence during the mutiny Indians killed 204 British women and children. In retribution, the British executed around 100,000 sepoys (Indian soldiers working for the British) and tens of thousands of civilians in a series of hideously brutal atrocities. After squashing the mutiny, the British became more wary and harsh to prevent any further insurrection. This book begins in 1940 with the execution of Udham Singh in London. Udham, a Sikh from India, had spent the past 21 years planning the assassination of Sir Michael O’Dwyer, the man he held responsible for the 1919 massacre carried out by British troops at Jallianwala Bagh, a garden in Amritsar. At the time of the massacre, O’Dwyer was the lieutenant governor of Punjab, but the actual massacre was carried out under the command of Brigadier General …

Do you know of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre? It is also referred to as the Amritsar massacre. Read this book and find out. Learning about the massacre opens your eyes to British colonialism as with a punch.The massacre took place on April 13, 1919, in Amritsar which is located in the Punjab province of India. The book tells of the events that led up to the massacre, what happened during the massacre and what transpired in the days and weeks that followed. It looks at long term consequences, years and decades later. It looks at those involved--both those holding the reins of power, the British colonialists, and the Indian people under British domain. It shows readers how people of different nations and cultures see one event with different eyes. The massacre had profound effects on those who witnessed it. Some came to feel survivor’s guilt. Others sought revenge.The book follows one man, who at all costs, sought revenge.The book is not dry. It reads as narrative non-fiction. It vividly portrays an event in history and is at the same time based on in-depth, solid research. That which is uncertain is presented as such. To my eyes, the presentation appears balanced and impartial.The author reads the audiobook. She is not only an author, but also a journalist and a British-Indian radio and television broadcaster. As a result, she reads rapidly. Her diction is clear but for those listeners of a different background, the speed with which she hurls out Indian names and terms makes listening difficult. You simply have not adequate time to absorb that which is evident and common knowledge to her. She speaks so rapidly that I gave up trying to write down individuals’ names. Her fluency certainly did not make it easier for me to absorb the book’s content. I have therefore given …

I seem to be on a real India kick lately [I cannot seem to learn enough about this fascinating country and the people that live there] and so when I saw this book on NetGalley, I jumped at the chance to read more history of this amazing county. I was NOT expecting the book I read. You would think, that by the title, I would have had a clue that this was not going to be the easiest book to read, but apparently, I was having a stupid day and thought it was going to be another book rich in Indian history and that was that. AND, to be honest, it is about that. But it is also about so much more. I had not heard of Udham Singh and I absolutely had not heard of [which is a travesty in my opinion] of the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre of 1919. The lead up to the actual massacre and then the act itself filled me with rage, sadness and despair for the people that were there and for the survivors of that horrific act [I actually could not speak of it for several days as it made me want to vomit just thinking about it, much less speaking about it]. I mentioned to a friend that in my opinion, not all the monsters came out of Germany - what Michael O'Dwyer and Reginald Dyer did was nothing short of what Hitler did, except that he did it on a bigger stage and scale. Note this quote from the book:"Sir Michael simply could not understand why his masters in London failed to see the deficits in the natives that he did. It maddened him that the greater autonomy was being given to inferior races. Step by step Britain would lose the entire Raj unless men like him stopped it from happening." This is just one of the many examples of just how one-sided this man was in regards to the Indian people. And the massacre was just a tipping point for him in regard to how he looked and treated and acted about the people of India. And considering that …
