पराक्रम और परम्परा

Books by प्रताप सिंह मेहता

राजाओं और राज्यों के बारे में पर्याप्त इतिहास लिखा गया है, लेकिन इस पुस्तक के माध्यम से हमें समकालीन विस्मृत व अल्प ज्ञात शासकों उनके मंत्रियों के पराक्रम और परम्परा की अनकही ऐतिहासिक गाथाओं की जानकारी प्राप्त होती है।

"यह एक रोमांचकारी एतिहासिक पुस्तक है। इसमें ऐसे व्यक्तियों के इतिहास की दिलचस्प कहानियां शामिल हैं, जिनके पूर्वजों ने मध्यकाल के दौरान राजपूताना में विभिन्न शासकों और अमात्यों के रूप में उच्च पदों पर कार्य किया था। वे अक्सर इन कहानियों के मुख्य किरदार थे। विरासत और संस्कृति के परिचितों को यह पुस्तक न केवल कथात्मक और प्रेरक बल्कि सरल लेखन शैली के कारण भी आकर्षक लगनी चाहिए।"

उदय सिंह महूरकर ,
चीफ इन्फार्मेशन कमिश्नर, भारत सरकार (पूर्व)

"क्या राजपुताना का इतिहास शौर्य और बलिदान की दास्तानों से भरा है? क्या इसके राजे-रजवाड़ों में सत्ता और पदों के लिए षड्यंत्र और खूनी संघर्ष के किस्से भी आम रहे हैं? इसी परंपरा में रंगी-पगी बच्छावत वंश की कहानी भी है। इस वंश की वर्तमान पीढ़ी के एक चश्मो चिराग़ कमांडर प्रताप सिंह मेहता ने अथक परिश्रम और खोज के बाद यह पुस्तक लिखी है। इसमें राजपुताना के सैकड़ों साल के इतिहास, इसके शासकों और मंत्रियों से जुड़ी कही-अनकही बातों का संकलन किया गया है। पुस्तक को पढ़ना अतीत के रोमांचकारी लम्हों को जीवंत करने जैसा है।"

Guns and Glories

Books by Pratap Singh Mehta

This is an important collection of stories by Pratap Singh Mehta for any reader interested in the full range of historical viewpoints in Rajasthan’s cultural heritage. Often portrayed as a land of uncritical religiosity, camels and sand, Commander Mehta brings out Rajasthan's long tradition of scepticism, doubt and critical reasoning including a considerable religious tolerance. Each story is logically broken down in anecdotal format with relevant paintings and pictures. The book is beautifully written and each story is a joy to read. A wide range of Rajputana's valiant, philosophic and cultural contributions by the lesser known nobles of the Bachhawat clan is comprehensively covered.

Anupam Kher, Film Actor, Producer and Director adds, “Commander Mehta goes back in time and comes up with a book that celebrates our culture and legacy through some really insightful anecdotes from the great Rajputana. He takes the reader on an informal journey where he is not afraid of getting off the highways of history and taking them through the bylanes of Rajputana heritage where we find some incredible, yet untold stories of valour and morality at their most educating and entertaining levels.”

Talking more about his coffee table book, Mehta says, “Rajputana Chronicles: Guns & Glories – The thousand-year story of the Bachhawat clan, could perhaps be essential reading for anyone seriously interested to know how states in Rajputana were governed and her heritage. This book reverberates with great kings like Maharana Pratap, Emperor Akbar and the visionary Prime Ministers like Karam Chand Bachhawat (Bikaner) and Rai Pannalal Mehta (Mewar).”

Commander Mehta reveals the intention that drove him and his thought process behind this endeavour, "Whether you are a genealogist, family or social historian or just a curious mind, tracing ancestry is both intriguing and perplexing. Traditionally, familial relationships were passed down via oral history. While this still occurs in many families today, it’s normal to have unknown, distant cousins or grandmas being pointed out at gatherings. In communities that have experienced so much upheaval and disruption, the most thorough family records may reside in the memories of relatives."
