520 _aThis user-friendly textbook attempts to weave the known facts of history with the unknown and thus foster a spirit of enquiry among its young readers. Apart from political history, due emphasis has been laid on socio-economic changes, administrative innovations, cultural ferments and the trials and tribulations of nationalist movements. Due importance has also been given to the post-independence era that led to the emergence of a new India vibrant with a fresh lease of life. Adequately illustrated with maps, this volume also contains a detailed chronology, biographical notes on distinguished personalities, a list of Congress sessions including names of Presidents, Prime Ministers, Presidents and Vice-Presidents of independent India as well as an exhaustive bibliography.
