Description:Rao Tula Ram (1825-1863) of Rewari was one of the most important leaders of the uprising of 1857 in northern India. He raised the flag of revolt against the British on 17 May 1857 and kept it fluttering, through thick and thin, till his last breath. He not only obliterated every vestige of the British rule from southwest Haryana but also helped the rebel forces fighting in the historic city of Delhi with men, money and material. He was a first rate administrator and a military commander. After the uprising petered out, he left India and met the rulers of Iran and Afghanistan and established contacts with the czar of Russia to seek their help to fight another war to free India from the British yoke. His death at Kabul, on 23 September 1863, however, shipwrecked his grand plan. The story based on archival, Indian and Russian, and other sources, primary and secondary, is inspiring. It not only rescues an important leader of the uprising from anonymity but also provides some important details and insights, which can be use., in understanding the nature and scope of the first great challenge to the British imperialism in Asia. K.C. Yadav (b. 1936) has been teaching, researching and writing history in the past four decades. He has authored/edited a number of books, published from India and abroad. Modern Indian history, specially the struggle for freedom, 1857-1947, is his forte. He taught at Kurukshetra University for over 30 years, and was visiting Research Professor at the Tokyo University of Foreign Studies for one year.
