This well-loved copy of Louis Fischer’s seminal biography “Gandhi” offers a unique window into the life and philosophy of one of the most influential figures of the 20th century. Published in 1950, just two years after Gandhi’s assassination, Fischer’s work remains a landmark in the study of the Mahatma’s nonviolent resistance movement and its impact on India’s struggle for independence. Drawing from extensive personal interviews and correspondence, the author paints a vivid portrait of Gandhi’s spiritual and political journey, from his early years as a lawyer in South Africa to his pivotal role in leading the Indian people to freedom through civil disobedience. This edition, a 2010 reprint from Signet, provides a affordable entry point for readers and collectors alike to explore the legacy of a man whose teachings on nonviolence, civil rights, and self-discipline continue to resonate across cultures and generations.
