Lions Led By Donkeys Podcast

Immerse yourself in a gripping tale of the Battle of Saragarhi, where just 21 Sikh soldiers courageously faced thousands of Afghan tribesmen. Discover the harsh realities of British military racism and flawed strategies that complicated their defense. Journey through the geopolitical landscape of late-19th century Afghanistan, including the significance of the Khyber Pass and the controversial 'martial races' theory. This heroic stand highlights themes of sacrifice and resilience in the face of overwhelming odds.
