| Summary | "Hira Singh: When India Came to Fight in Flanders" by Talbot Mundy is a historical novel written during the early 20th century, set against the backdrop of World War I. The story focuses on Hira Singh, a Sikh soldier who reflects on the complexities of loyalty, bravery, and the perils of wartime secrecy as he recounts his experiences alongside his fellow Indian troops and their commander, Ranjoor Singh. The opening of the narrative introduces Hira Singh, who is recovering in a convalescent camp after enduring the horrors of war. He learns of the courageous background of his fellow soldiers and their steadfast loyalty to Britain despite being captured by the Germans. Throughout his interactions, especially with Ranjoor Singh, Hira gains insight into the tensions that arise from cultural loyalties amid the chaotic war environment. As he navigates the uncertainty of military campaigns and reflects on the camaraderie forged in battle, he prepares to unveil a deeper tale of Indian contributions and sacrifices within the European conflict, hinting at themes of sacrifice, identity, and the quest for honor.
