1962 THE WAR THAT WASN’T

Shiv Kunal Verma?s book ?1962:
The War That Wasn?t? is an unrivalled attempt at unravelling the mystery that
surrounds India?s most shameful defeat at the hands of the People?s
Liberation Army of China. This was a conflict between India and China across India?s
Himalayan frontiers in the north and the East. It was a conflict that was
never formally declared and several accounts have been written dedicated to
this matter; however, none is as deterrent as the account given by Shiv Kunal
Verma. He talks of the plight of the Indian solders across the northern
border, all the way from Nam ka Chu in the eastern sector to Ladakh on the
Western front. He talks about the horror that would have happened had the
Chinese army not decided unilaterally to cease fire and stop its vicious
campaign on the Indian soil. This was a conflict that saw massacre on both
lands injuring over four thousand soldiers.??
The book is based on several accounts from soldiers who were present
in the line of fire and were able enough to give a vivid first person account
on what actually took place in that unfortunate year of 1962. ?1962: The War
That Wasn?t? is an account of India?s horrific escape from disaster in young
