A very interesting book, whose very title will make
lots of people squirm, is "The Vedic Harappans"
by Bhagwan Singh. It is a massive treatise, and
an important book for anyone interested in the
subject of Western scholarship on South Asia.

The final victory in our struggle has been vouchsafed by Guru Gobind Singh, the Harbinger of the good tidings of the ever present Grace of God. --Inscription from a Sikh coin struck by Banda Singh Bahadur in 1710
