Quotes from the Sikh gurus and from allies and foes of the Sikh soldiers, detailed captions and a brief commentary trace the spiritual and ethical origins of the Sikh call-to-arms, the martyrdoms and conflict of the Mogul period, the founding of the Khalsa by Guru Gobind Singh, the Anglo-Sikh wars, and the contributions of Sikhs in both World Wars and more recent international conflicts.
