reviewed Sikhs on July 12, 2013 Sikhs
I really enjoyed the insight I got from this book. I am an admitted atheist, but much admire the Sikh religion for its beliefs, as I knew them. When I bought this book, I was after more the thoughts and understanding behind the religion itself, but happily discovered a history of the followers of the religion instead.
I don't normally write reviews that rehash the contents of books simply because there are usually so many that do, there just isn't a point. It is not so with this book, and unfortunately I am off to San Diego for a holiday and don't have time. So I will be coming back to this first thing.
