Biography of Amr̥talāla Dalapatabhāī Śeṭha, 1891-1954, journalist, editor, and nationalist from Gujarat, India.
The book is a fascinating personal account of Gandhiji and his ideas as he translated them into his own life and encouraged others to translate their beliefs into their lives. Some of the key notions propagated by Gandhiji have been outlined in simple and practical terms such as the idea of education for personal spiritual and skills development. Also, this book emphasizes the important role that Kasturba played in the liberation movement in India and in South Africa. She is not depicted as the “woman behind a great man” but rather as an activist and leader in her own right. Her strong personality comes through the stories in this book.

This version of Gandhi’s autobiography is a fascinating account of his eventful and turbulent life from his birth till 1920. He did not write it to document his achievements, but to share with others the lessons he learnt by addressing his weaknesses; and what bold actions he took in the interest of larger goals even at the risk of his life.
