This book delves into decolonial saga of Malabar through the eyes of a native chronicler and uncover the hidden truth behind the 'Musaliar King,' the media moulded monarch by colonial misnomers. This richly woven narrative illuminates inter-community alliances amidst turmoil and exposes calculated colonial stratagems that obscured sacrifices made by natives.
The narrative serves as a corrective lens, shedding light on the valiant deeds often overshadowed by colonial narratives. Readers are taken on a transformative journey, where historical understanding is reshaped, and the vernacular valour embedded in the history of Malabar comes to the forefront.
Navigate the contours of a contentious issue surrounding a photograph, as the author masterfully challenges its authenticity. This eloquent journey transcends the mere exploration of historical facts; it is a symphony of identity, sacrifice, and community resilience. A literary gem for aficionados of history, this monograph invites readers to savour the beauty of Malabar's tumultuous past, promising a profound understanding of the events that have shaped its captivating history.
This book debunks controversial narratives and confronts the misidentified, reshaping historical understanding and revealing the spirit within Malabar's untold stories of solidarity and sacrifice.
