Haldighati

“What follows is a feast of Rajasthani Dingal poetry in translation. There are few, perhaps none, as well equipped as Kesri Singh to create such translation. He is a master of Dingal and of English. His translation reflects not only his command of both languages but also his poetic imagination and fluency. It takes a poet to translate a poet.” – Prof. Lloyd L. Rudolph from the “Introduction”
I hope The Story of the Battle of Haldighati – which is as close to authentic history as can be – will be found interesting by the general reader; the essay discussing some of the Controversies Concerning the Battle, to be of some worth by serious scholars and researchers in the field of medieval Mewar history; and the Maharana and the Muse, delightful by lovers of property. – Author from the “Afterword”
