Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
Review of Jack Mortons book Indian Army on Western Front-As a matter of fact Rohtak was a non Punjabi district transferred to Punjab only in 1858 along with other non Punjabi districts of Karnal,Gurgaon and Hissar for participation in 1857 rebellion. Interestingly our brilliant author Jack Morton makes no mention of Ranghar Muslims in being soldiers in British Indian Army whereas they were a most important part of the cavalry arm. On page 3 he makes nonsense statements about Sikh recruitment highlighting Gujranwala and Lyallpur and totally ignoring Amritsar which contributed highest number of Sikhs : Punjabi Muslims were also recruited from south of Jhelum River , Mr Jack Morton ! Specially districts like Gujrat , Sargodha,Ferozpur, Jullundhur,Ludhiana,Mianwali ,Sialkot,Gurdaspur ,Gujranwala etc. How Jack Morton can pronounce such judgements and where was Mr Strachan in correcting this nonsense emanating from Jack Morton is an unsolved mystery ! Again Jack Morton cites no reference to support
