Few men in their lifetime have aroused stronger emotions or touched deeper chords than Mahatma Gandhi. Nanda's biography, widely acclaimed upon its publication in 1958, has been established over time as one of the fullest and most authoritative accounts of Gandhi's life.

Carefully researched and objective, this complete and unabridged version is the compelling life story of a remarkable figure, the events of which lost none of their relevance. Capturing all the nuances of the momentous events it covers, this book is a record and analysis of a critical period in South Asian history that will be of value to all those interested in the field.

EXCERPTS FROM REVIEWS:

Well arranged and informed by a sense of proportion and relative value. It rescues Gandhi both from the sentimentalists and from the debunkers.
-The Times

Complete and readable, Mr B R Nanda makes the Father of Indian independence a personality from the opening paragraphs.
