About the Book :- The author has made a noble attempt to know about the great king of Mysure Tippoo Sultan. An intensely passionate tale of love and intrigues, faith and betrayal, feuds and wars. This pleasantly congruous mix of fact and fiction had been culled out of one of the most momentous periods of Indian history the times of Tippoo Sultaun. Tippoo`s three-front animosity with the Marathas, the Nizam of Hayderabad and the British form the warp through which late Colonel Meadows Taylor deftly weaves his fervid account. The leader was a man perhaps about fifty years of age; he rode’s powerful Dekhan horse of Great Spirit, but whose usual fiery compartment was tamed by the severe exertion he had undergone, from the miry roads through which he had travelled the greater part of the day. Indeed he began to show evident symptoms of weariness, and extricated himself from every succession.
