Veera Thevan and The East India Company

Veera Thevan Where Periya Marudhu was, Veeraththevan was there. If Periya Marudhu said ‘Hoom’, Veereththevan would respond ‘Yes’ and get into action. For the revolution of the Maravas that arose in Tamil Nadu, Veeraththevan was like the right hand. The history of Veeraththevan gives greatness to the history of Tamil Nadu itself. This novel, ‘Veeraththevan’, one of the several novels of Swami Shudhdhananda Bharati, delineates the events related to the freedom struggle of brave Tamils in the Pandiya kingdom in the form of a story. With apt and striking chapter headings, the story is woven in a flowing style, eulogising valour, heroism and the tactical war methodologies of the Pandiya Kingdom in the eighteenth century. Humour is interspersed into the narration in a piquant manner. Editions ASSA / Christian Piaget
