- : When Guru Ramdas chose his youngest son, Arjanmal, to succeed him as the fifth guru of the Sikhs, it created a lot of ill-will in his eldest son, Prithichand. But the choice was not wrong. Guru Arjan was the very embodiment of love, humility and courage. His greatest contribution to Sikhism was the compilation of the Guru Granth Sahib and the construction of the Har Mandir Sahib in Amritsar. He was the first Sikh martyr and by his death inspired his followers to uphold the truth under any pressure.

- : Tipu Sultan died as he lived, a free man. A childhood spent watching and helping in his father's campaigns had made him a shrewd general. From his father he also inherited courage and a sense of honor and, most importantly, the determination to oust the British from Indian soil.

- : Kunwar Singh was seventy-five when he chose to fight the British. His story is part of the chain of events that surround the First War of Indian Independence. Even though he was on good terms with the British commissioner of Patna, Kunwar Singh was clear that his loyalties lay with the mutinying sepoys. He and his band of men caused enough disruption to have the British baying for his arrest. Sasaram, Rewa, Ramgarh, Atraulia, he seemed to be everywhere at the same time and they never got him.
