The bias for Nehru was cleared by the author in the intro itself. But it will still leave you in awe of the magnanimity of the love that Netaji had for the country. This is one of the best written Indian history book by an Indian. This book somewhat summarizes the contemporary Indian independence struggle. Would have loved if the book had talked about Royal Indian Navy mutiny also while mentioning about trails for INA soldiers.

Short & crisp history of the great nation. If you are starting out reading about Indian history, I doubt there can be a better book that covers happenings all the way from Rakhigari to Gurgaon.

If you have interest in the music of 90s, pick it up. You will read about the people behind that music, stories around creating it and Gulzar decoding his lyrical gems.

Pick the book and start reading. Doesn't matter who you are.

The most important book I have read. Took an eternity, but worth it.
