Leading Lives Mohandas Gandhi
Mohandas Gandhi follows the lawyer and political leader from his formative years in India and South Africa to his central role in the struggle against British rule. The biography explains how Gandhi developed satyagraha, mass civil disobedience and a public ethic of nonviolence, while also confronting imprisonment, communal division and disagreement within the nationalist movement. His campaign for independence is set beside the partition crisis and his assassination in 1948.
