I would say biased book.
1> Why did Bose created the suicide drama at Taiwan Airport ?
2> Why did Bose not return to India to become 1st PM, if everybody thinks he WON?
3> Why and What was Bose afraid of British ?
The answer to the above questions are not present in the book but are hidden, which clearly shows that he was outrightly DEFEATED by British and therefore his government was of ZERO Value. To wage a WAR against British he was declared International WAR criminal and would be executed by British. Therefore the condition was put forth by British to handover Bose and agreed by Congress. Blunder by Bose. Propaganda by right wing society of India.
Bakshi, the military man author is biased and he has no knowledge of how politics works. He is not rational thinker and has biased mindset.
Definitely it was GANDHIJI who gave us freedom but Bose did his own efforts which was futile.
