In the book is narrated the life story of the great Sikh warrior, Hari Singh Nalwa who was a pillar of the Khalsa Raj. Nalwa had a versatile brain, he took prompt decisions and never wavered.
He always remembered Cod and the great Guru. He admired Guru Gobind Singh's war like qualities and worshipped the sword and the shield. He followed on the Guru's footsteps and faught against injustice and tyranny.
Before going on any Campaign or jumping into a fray, he took Vak from Sri Guru Granth Sahib and performed ardasa. He firmly believed in the existence of one Supreme Being who is the Creator and the Destroyer. Even during the worst crisis, he never lost faith in God and always achieved his motive. Nalwa was a terror for the Afghans. Even to this day, mothers of children tell them to behave otherwise Nalwa would come and take them away.
 
The life story of such a great man will surely inspire the younger generations who are unaware of the deeds of Sikh Generals who laid down their lives for the establishment of the Khalsa Raj.
