Dear readers, I wrote this book, the life story of my father, Sirdar Mohan Singh, according to the truth. I did not try to fictionalize or modify it, as I completely understand my responsibility toward the readers. I wrote this life story because I knew it was full of thrills and knowledge. Having read it completely, it should give you a great sense of motivation and life experience with a message. I wrote the bad as well as the good experiences. I was very transparent in the matter of pure truth. I personally chose and arranged the pictures. I started with a blank paper, and finished with a complete book in readers’ hands. Yes, this is my first book, and I did it with best of my knowledge. God bless all!

Sikkim is an enigma for most, its history and its 1975 merger with India shrouded in mystery. This book fills the lacunae on both fronts, combining insights into the erstwhile royal kingdom's unique history with the intriguing story of how it became India's twenty-second state. It examines the often-fraught relationship between its original inhabitants, the Lepchas, and the Bhutias (people of Tibetan origin) who established institutions of religion and governance - Lamaist Buddhism and the Namgyal dynasty respectively. Aspects of the Indian relationship with Tibet form part of this narrative, in particular due to the British involvement in the Himalayan region as a consequence of the 'Great Game' and great power rivalry with the Russian empire. For India today, Sikkim remains significant from a strategic point of view, given its proximity to the border with Tibet, now China, and the presence of the vital Siliguri Corridor that connects India's northeast with the rest of the country.
Subhas Chandra Bose, 1897-1945, Indian statesman.
