Southern India, early eighteenth century. A mighty king is murdered, his royal army diminished. The queen seeks revenge with her army of women. As the warmongering nawabs annex the major dominions of Arcot, a small, rebellious kingdom, Sivaganga, is thrown into turmoil after the murder of its king, Muthuvaduganatha Thevar. His queen consort, Rani Velu Nachiyar, along with her generals and subjects, must immediately escape the palace to safety. Despite the many dangers of living in the wilderness, among them spies and assassins sent from Arcot to hunt her down, Velu Nachiyar soon emerges from the shadows to put up a fierce fight. With the Sivaganga army dwindled, she enlists women, training them in guerrilla warfare and the ancient martial arts techniques of the land. But with Arcot and the English joining forces, she is forced to traverse hostile enemy territories to reach Mysuru and seek the nawab Hyder Ali’s help. As the queen’s thirst for vengeance grows stronger and her enemies gain more ground, a confrontation on the battlefield is now inevitable. Will the fearless warrior queen avenge her husband’s murder and reclaim her throne? Will Rani Velu Nachiyar triumph in the first war of independence?

In general histories of India, the part of the country with which we are concerned figures only in a small way. Vincent Smith rightly observed ‘most historians of ancient India have written as if the South did not exist’ and explained this neglect of the South in two ways. ‘The historian of India,’ he said, ‘is bound by the nature of things to direct his attention to the North, and is able to give only a secondary place to the story of Deccan Plateau and the far south. ‘South India and northern Ceylone are the one of the oldest inhabited regions of the world and its prehistoric archaeology and contacts with neighbouring lands, so far as traceable, constitutes an important chapter in the history of world’s civilizations. The Marathas of the western Deccan are the southern most of indo Aryan speaking people and all the country to the east and south of them speaks languages which fall into a single group with Thamizh as the source which is the Classical living language & exists the ethnicity called Thamizhan, with its own individuality and unique, unconquerable potency in both Politics, culture, sport, worship, art, agriculture and valour. They had a wide spread life in now called India with Himalayas as their border in North and Kanyakumari in South. This is what all about in this book, the valour, courage and valiance of kings and warriors who existed in Thamizh ethnics’ right from the ancient era. Shown with available referrals from the Thamizh epics and literatures from Sangam era translated in English.

Description The Chowtas ruled over Ullal and surrounding areas of coastal Karnataka. Many rulers in this dynasty were women, and at least two carried the name Rani Abbakka. They have gone down in history and folklore as fearsome warriors who fiercely defended their tiny kingdom, and repeatedly defeated the Portuguese. This is the story of Abbakka III. Abbakka grows up knowing she will rule over the kingdom one day-the one that was ruled by her grandmother Abbakka II and her mother Rani Tirumala Devi. Abbakka trains with all her heart in everything a queen needs to know, and never tires of hearing the tales of sea battles that her grandmother waged against the firangis. But Abbakka is also a young girl who loves adventure. She sets out on dangerous missions to track down spies on the seas. She accompanies her mother in a secret plan to outwit the Portuguese as they try to capture the kingdom's precious pepper crop. And then there is the handsome, mysterious boy from Mangalore, who she likes enormously... Steeped in the culture and history of the region, The Teenage Diary of Abbakka is the fictional diary of an unusual girl growing up during an exciting time-a girl who would eventually go to any lengths to protect and defend her kingdom.
