Description

This definitive biography of one of the most intriguing figures of the 20th century, written by his grandson, is the first to give a complete and balanced account of Gandhi's remarkable life, full of contrasts and contradictions: the westernised London-trained lawyer who wore the clothes of India's poorest and spun cotton by hand; the apostle of non-violence who lead an Indian ambulance corps in the Boer War and urged Indians to enlist in the First World War; and, the champion of Indian independence who never hated the British.

Gandhi's development during his long life and the conflicts in his own personality are as much a part of this book as his campaigns against racial discrimination in South Africa and for Swaraj' in India, his development of non-violent resistance ( satyagraha'), and the problem of Hindu-Muslim conflict, the resolution of which was one of the passions of Gandhi's life and which is still of vital significance today.
