Ramachandra Guha
This volume opens with Mohandas Gandhi's arrival in Bombay in January 1915 and takes us through his epic struggles over the next three decades: to deliver India from British rule, to forge harmonious relations between India's Hindu and Muslim populations, to end the pernicious Hindu practice of untouchability, and to develop India's economic and moral self-reliance. We discover how in each of these campaigns, Gandhi adapted methods of nonviolence - strikes, marches, fasts - that successfully challenged British authority, religious orthodoxy, social customs, and would influence nonviolent, revolutionary movements throughout the world.
In reconstructing Gandhi's life and work, Ramachandra Guha has drawn on 60 different archival collections, the most significant among them, a previously unavailable collection of papers belonging to Gandhi himself. Using this wealth of material, Guha creates a portrait of Gandhi and of those closest to him - family, friends, political and social leaders - that illuminates the complexity inside his thinking, his motives, his actions, and their outcomes as he engaged with every important aspect of social and public life in the India of his time.

A book about Gandhi has been on my “to listen to” list for a long time.
I am glad I waited, so this most excellent book by Ramachandra Guha became available.
I won’t go into details of the book. It is up to you to find out.
The one thing I do want to mention is Winston Churchill in regards to his judgment of Gandhi, driven by his racist feelings, while many world renowned figures send notices of condolences after his tragic murder, there was no acknowledgement of it by Churchill.
I had noticed this before from reading “ Churchill and Gandhi”
Pitiful, coming from a person who played an important role in history, but I guess he too was a product of his environment, having racial prejudices.
The narrator Derek Perkins as always is a pleasure to listen to.
My thanks to all involved, JK.
