Soldier Mountaineer cover

In the annuals of Indian Mountaineering Colonel Narinder Kumar, affectionately called 'Bull' by his friends due to his physical prowess, has played a highly significant role. Without him the history of Indian mountaineering would have been quite different. The author Colonel N N Bhatia along with inputs from Col Bull himself has endeavored to put across a compelling and absorbing account of the life and times of Narinder Kumar who took Indian mountaineering and mountaineering in the army to sublime heights. The appeal of 'Soldier Mountaineer' will surely stretch beyond the Army libraries to all adventure lovers in India and abroad.
