Summary

Twenty-one riveting stories from the battlefield about how India's highest military honor was won

The Brave takes you to the hearts and minds of India's bravest soldiers, all of whom won the Param Vir Chakra, India's greatest military honor. With access to the Army, families, and comrades-in-arms of the soldiers, Rachna Bisht Rawat paints the most vivid portrait of these men and their extraordinary deeds.

How hard is it to fight at 20,000 feet in sub-zero temperatures? Why did Captain Vikram Batra say, "Yeh dil maange more"? How do wives and girlfriends of soldiers who don't return cope? What happens when the enemy is someone that you have trained? How did the Charlie Company push back the marauding Chinese? How did a villager from Uttar Pradesh become a specialist in destroying tanks?

Both gripping and inspiring, The Brave is the ultimate audiobook on the Param Vir Chakra.

Enthralling

If you want inspiring stories of martial valour cleverly placed in their historical and military context and not forgetting that these brave men were human beings with families and back stories you could no better than listen to this. The narrator’s voice is warm and sympathetic and very Indian which greatly suits the narrative
