Synopsis A Mission in Kashmir by : Andrew Whitehead
Within Weeks Of The Birth Of Independent India, The Kashmir Valley Was In Flames. Indian Troops Were Fighting Against Invading Pathan Tribesmen Who Sought To Claim The Princely State For Pakistan. These Were The First Sparks In A Conflict Which Remains Unresolved. Attempts To Establish How The Kashmir Dispute First Erupted Have Been Obscured And Impeded By Competing Nationalisms. Retrieving Stories Of Attackers And Survivors, Looters And Looted, Fighters And Civilians, Andrew Whitehead Sets Out To Write A Full And Impartial Account Of How Kashmir Became A Theatre Of War. He Has Gathered A Remarkable Range Of First-Hand Testimonies Of The Most Notorious Episode In The Invasion The Desecration Of A Convent And Mission Hospital In The Riverside Town Of Baramulla-Including One Written By A Missionary Priest And Never Consulted Before. It Provides A Powerful Human Dimension To What Is Often Seen As A Dispute About Territory. In The Process We Come Closer To Resolving Questions That Have For Decades Been The Subject Of Controversy: Who Were The Invaders? Were They Commanded By Pakistan? What Support Did They Get From Local Kashmiris? And Why, When Srinagar Was At Their Mercy, Did They Fail To Capture The Kashmir Capital? Apart From Making Brilliant Use Of Oral History, Andrew Whitehead Has Uncovered Archive Documents Which Challenge Both Indian And Pakistani Accounts Of The Genesis Of The Kashmir Dispute. Also Unearthed Is A Letter From Kashmir S Last Maharaja, Written At The Height Of The Crisis, Requesting Immediate Accession To India. Rigorously Researched And Immensely Readable, This Book Not Only Explains How The Kashmir Conflict Started But Also Why It Has Proved So Difficult To Solve.

Synopsis Death in Kashmir by : M. M. Kaye
Written by celebrated author M. M. Kaye, Death in Kasmir is a wonderfully evocative mystery ... When young Sarah Parrish takes a skiing vacation to Gulmarg, a resort nestled in the mountains above the fabled Vale of Kashmir, she anticipates an entertaining but uneventful stay. But when she discovers that the deaths of two in her party are the result of foul play, she finds herself entrusted with a mission of unforeseen importance. And when she leaves the ski slopes for the Waterwitch, a private houseboat on the placid shores of the Dal Lake near Srinagar, she discovers to her horror that the killer will stop at nothing to prevent Sarah from piecing the puzzle together.

Synopsis In Search of Return by : Shifa Haq
Beginning in 1989, more than 8,000 men disappeared in Kashmir. These disappearances were publicly denied, leaving mourners to grapple with unrecognized grief. Drawn from ten years of psycho-historical research in Kashmir, Shifa Haq reflects on the bereaved families’ intricate experiences of mourning. Haq expands the psychoanalytic understanding of loss and argues for a mourning that includes porous affective links with the political.
