9781497312104: An Indian Pilgrim: An Unfinished Autobiography. This is the first part of the two-volume original autobiography of Subhas Chandra Bose first published in 1948 by Thacker Sprink & Co.

Synopsis

Written towards the end of 1937 during his Europe trip, after being nominated the President of the Indian National Congress, An Indian Pilgrim traces Bose’s life story from birth till his resignation from the Indian Civil Service. It is an astounding account of his ideological development and his singular focus on India’s reconstruction in which Swami Vivekananda played a large part—"I was barely fifteen when Vivekananda entered my life. Then there followed a revolution within and everything was turned upside down." The book recounts the development of the spirit of service, sacrifice and zeal for national liberation, which were the driving forces of his life. We hope this publication will gain wide circulation so that the spirit of Subhas Chandra Bose becomes the guiding light of the country’s youth in these disturbing times.

Review

`Bose's retrospective self-analysis, and meticulous accounts of his inner-struggle as a truant schoolboy searching for holy enlightenment, would be a useful reference point for those who tend to interpolate an amoral, fantastic streak in Bose from his subsequent alliance with Nazi Germany ...'
