About this book

This is a month-by-month account of what happened in 1947 when the Punjab was partitioned as a consequence of the partition of India. Some 10 million Punjabis were forced to flee from their homes; 500,000 to 800,000 were killed. The story is told with the help of secret British reports and accounts of survivors and witnesses.
