Riassunto

The Internationally Acclaimed Biography of One of History?s Monumental Figures Gandhi: A Life The first biography of this important figure in over twenty years, Gandhi: A Life rescues the man from the myth, revealing the transformation of an ordinary, timid young man into a leader whose stand against a mighty empire brought millions together. "Until another Gandhi scholar comes along who digs deeper and can write more movingly, Gandhi scholarship will be well served by Chadha?s effort." ? The Washington Post Book World "It is well-balanced, even-handed, and, like its subject, inspiring." ?Kirkus Reviews "An engaging work worthy of a wide audience." ?Library Journal "A sober, sensible, and notably fair account of this most quicksilver of personalities ? far from uncritical ? But on the whole he is approving, even reverential. Usually he convinces one that this is justified." ? Daily Telegraph (London) "The first major biography to appear for twenty years ? [with] a depth and authority which others have lacked." ?The Independent (London)
