| Summary, etc | Real history cannot be summarized into a few bullet points. It is a lot more detailed, nuanced and complicated. Over simplification often doesn't give the complete picture. The fixation of historians to push the narrative that only Congress, Nehru and Gandhi gave us Independence needs to be end. And this book is for those keep coming up with the narrative of "British divided us". This book doesn't indulge in hero worshiping of any leader. It gives the insight into the different situations and scenarios that lead to the partition of India at the time of Independence. I am glad that this book doesn't only focus on Congress. It shows various point of view, be it Jinnah, Muslim league, Britishers and non congress leaders. It details about the lack of clear vision of then leaders of Indian National Congress about united India and the mistakes which lead to division of Indian population based on the religion. The seeds our leaders sowed before Independence will help you understand the complexities of present-day politics in India. I am not going to go in detail. Read it, you will understand what exactly i am talking about.<br/><br/>For lucid account on partition of |
