Description

The 1971 East Pakistan tragedy was not just a failure of the military but also a collapse of civil society in the West Wing.

The few voices raised against the military action were too feeble to make the army change its course, a course that lead to military defeat and the break-up of the country.

At the time, the author was GOC 14 Division in East Pakistan.

Apart from his direct narration of the events, his portrayal of the major dramatis personae, such as Field Marshal Ayub Khan, General Yahya Khan, Lt.

Gen. Tikka Khan and Lt. Gen. A.A.K. Niazi, are insightful. A necessary text that demands scrutiny from all interested in the course of Pakistan's history.
