This book is an attempt to make our present generation aware of those great people, who sacrificed their lives to protect our Motherland, thereby facilitated us to breathe in  the free environment. This book is  an account to their acts of valour  and places associated with them. With a firm view that every Indian  is indebted to contributions of all such warriors, freedom fighters, revolutionaries whose debts cannot be repaid by any means, the author believes that we can lessen the debts by visiting those sacred places, by meeting their families and also by passing these virtues to our younger generation. More than a research in history, this book is a result of the author’s aspirations to visit historical places of our illustrious country. Through this book, the author has connected these shrines of martyrdom with history and importance in the present times. This book consist details of about 50 such places associated with the martyrs and patriots. The book is intended to act as a bridge which may help our older generation connect with the younger generation.ContentsForeword—7PREFACE—11Acknowledgements—151. First Freedom Struggle of 1857—192.
