Ganimi Kava: - Corporate Guerrilla Warfare - Corporate Strategy & Tactics Lessons From Ancient Maratha Guerrilla Warfare

This is the story of how the Marathas not only defended themselves against the largest empire of that time- The Mughal Empire, but, over decades of relentless war, leadership transitions, and strategic brilliance, ultimately defeated it. By the mid-18th century, the Marathas had risen to become the most dominant force in India, with the saffron flag rising at the top of Attock Fort in present-day Pakistan near the Afghanistan border to the Ginjee Fort in Tamil Nadu.
