The 1962 War was indeed a traumatic experience for the Indian arms.
The story from the Indian side is generally well known but very
little is known about how the Chinese planned and orchestrated the
entire campaign. While India held a firm belief till the very end
that China would not resort to a large scale military action; the
Chinese on the other hand had been preparing for it since 1959.
Even though the writing was on the wall, Indian Army allowed itself
to be hustled into a war on those high Himalayas for which it was
ill prepared...a kind of hurtling towards a point of no return.
Based on the Chinese literature, for the first time, we have been
able to delve into the Chinese thought process, their grand
strategy and reconstruct various battles across the entire front
from Chinese point of view; of course tempered with what is known
from authentic Indian sources. It is a narrative that is designed
to fill a great void that has existed all these years about this
War.
