"It is a must read to understand the second largest revolt against British Empire after 1857 September Mutiny. At the very outset, I must compliment Col Vijay for having chosen a subject with an endeavor to bring to national reckoning and uprising which remained in obscurity.” – Maj Gen Rajesh Kundra, AVSM, SM (Retd) Former General Officer Commanding Infantry Division “Anyone with a sense of history will find reading this short book most rewarding. Compliments on an extraordinarily researched and written in an easy to read style.” – Brig Suresh Nair, VSM * Former UN OBSERVER “Compliments to Col Vijay for exploring the little-known world of Kukis and taking us on a journey to their land and community through his book.” – Brig Sandeep Kumar, VSM The Anglo-Kuki War of 1917-19 is one of the glorious chapters of history of North-East India in which an unknown tribe challenged the might of the British Army and fought a war that lasted for over two years. Though the Kukis lost the war they fought gallantly to uphold their pride and dignity. It was truly a victory in defeat in a real sense.
