A record of the torments and battles of india. This volume shows infinite accounts of our pains, our riots and our movements. What I feared most about this book was that it may have highlight one or two persons as the hero and ignore other personalities. It lacks a balanced approached of point of view which is must about a book on history, specially political history, it just have too much of Nehru. It totally overlooked the long walks that india took in Economy and Foreign arrangement during the system of Atal Bihari Vajpayee. The financial changes during the government of PV narsimharavs administration was not offered the consideration it merited.
