'The Sketch of the Sikhs' is a pioneering work by John Malcolm, a European author, who served in the army for the East India Company. First published in the early 19th century, it is the first book to shed light on the history, manners, and religion of the Sikh people. Malcolm collected materials, including a copy of the Adí-Grant'h, and historical tracts, to which he added personal observations he made while with the British army in Punjab in 1805.
