Parvatibai was the brilliant and dynamic Baisaheb and wife of Sadashivrao Bhau who commanded the Maratha forces at the Third Battle of Panipat. She was the witness as well as survivor of the entire siege and battle at Panipat between the Marathas and Afghan invaders led by Ahmad Shah Abdali. Observed through Parvatibai?s eyes, this historical narrative counters some common controversies? Why were the valiant Marathas defeated at Panipat? Was it treachery of the Maratha sardars or a nefarious infiltrator that stabbed them in the back? Despite losing the battle, how did the Marathas succeed in their mission? Unprecedently told from the perspective of the vanquished, this tale explores the causes, strategies, and consequences of this great endeavour to safeguard India for Indians.
