Reading Notes: The Five Tall Sons of Pandu Part B

  Bibliography: "The Indian Story Book: The Five Tall Sons of Pandu" by Richard Wilson, 1914

• After their exile, Yudhisthira gets his own kingdom. Duryodhana becomes upset and wants to declare war, even though many of his advisors and the Pandavas want peace. 
• This starts the war and it continues as it did in the version of the Mahabharata we have read before. 
• The Kauravas lose their commanders in the same way and the war ends when Bhima slays Duryodhana. 
• The ending of this version is very different than the one we read a couple weeks ago as there is not a "happy" ending. 
• Instead of the families being able to see their loved ones and the Pandavas going to heaven they are just left to rebuild the broken kingdom.
