The Walking Brahmin retells the remarkable journey of Vishnubhat Balkrishna Godse, a poor Brahmin who travelled with his uncle during the upheaval of 1857. Their pilgrimage takes them through central India, Jhansi and Chitrakoot, bringing them face to face with war, violence, displacement and survival. Based on Vishnubhat’s first-hand account, the book offers an Indian civilian perspective on the 1857 uprising, combining travel, history and personal experience with maps and photographs.
