Lost Victory

"For a moment, one may mistake Lost victory as a biography of Prabhakaran. However, the book is more than that, for it takes a deep, incisive look at the over 30 year old Sri Lankan conflict, and the man who was considered one of the most effective guerilla leaders in modern warfare, the man who lived and died for a cause, in this case, his dream of creating a seperate Tamil homeland. The book is divided into five parts. The first part traces thousands of years old roots of the conflict. Details of geography, topography, climate, flora and fauna, demography, etc. of the beautiful island Serendip, later knownas ceylan till 1972 when it became Republic of Sri Lanka have been painstakingly conpiled by the author, The history of Eelam wars by minority Tamils in the focus of this part.."
