Description

Amagisterial account of the pains, the struggles, the humiliations, and the glories of the world's largest and least likely democracy, Ramachandra Guha's India After Gandhi is a breathtaking chronicle of the brutal conflicts that have rocked a giant nation and the extraordinary factors that have held it together. An intricately researched and elegantly written epic history peopled with larger-than-life characters, it is the work of a major scholar at the peak of his abilities.

Magnum Work by Guha

This book provides thorough knowledge about the events after independence in very neutral and articulated manner. The kind of verbiage that this book has, makes it fast and interesting read.
Don't go on the size, just start reading first few pages and you will find yourself glued to this Book.

Brilliant Piece of Work

People feel that history is mundane, useless. But all those critics should go through this book and it is sure to make them change their minds. Mr Guha takes you through the ages with ease and make he see history forming in front of you. There is not single dull moment.

P.S: The book help me now boast my knowledge of India in front of my friends :p
