This publication is an edited English commentary to the text known as the 'Prachin Panth Parkash'. This text is an early historical text into the tales of the Sikhs which was dictated to the British by Bhai Rattan Singh Bhangu. The text predominantly deals with the various wars involving the Sikhs following the lives of the ten Guru's. However, this third part to the text covers the details of the battles faced by Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji and the martyrdoms of the Sahibzadas. This text is a translation of the commentary provided by Akali Baba Santa Singh Nihang of the Buddha Dal. The reason for creating this translation is twofold: The first is to provide an English translation linked to the warrior sect of Sikhism known as the Nihangs. The Nihangs have a colourful history and added so much to the Khalsa order however, there is a lack of literature produced by the order. The second is to bring you a different perspective in English. There are currently two English translations of this text by Kulwant Singh and Gurtej Singh but both of them are basic whilst this is a translation of a commentary where further details are given by the Saint-Soldier. Providing information and comments you will not find anywhere else. Although I must say after reading through the initial text the commentary given by Baba Santa Singh does not always follow the lines being quoted in the original text it is still a very interesting read. I can personally say that I have been impressed with the amount that I have learned through this commentary both about the schism of the Nihangs and Sikh history.
