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.
