Dive into the hazardous and gripping world of a soldier's life with "A Life at the Edge" by H.S. Verma. With breezy wit and skill, the author weaves a narrative that sheds light on what it takes to don a uniform, where life is defined by possibilities. This deeply moving account explores the courage of widows and siblings of soldiers killed in action, showcasing their inspiring resilience in the face of loss. The book also delves into the ardent desire, a family "janoon," to send their loved ones to join the forces and serve the nation. Additionally, it provides an excellent account of a "Special Operation," distinct from a Surgical Strike but equally hazardous. This book serves as a timeless homage to those who live "A Life at The Edge." In a poignant ode to a soldier, the author passionately appeals to the countrymen: "To spare a moment, Stand in solemn silence, Pray for the departed soul, Salute the limping, When he passes by."
