Description and Table of Contents

Description

The story of Mahatma Gandhi is the story of modern India. Rejecting the violence and materialism of modern society, this spiritual leader advocated peaceful methods to achieve social reform, and it was largely through his efforts that India gained independence from British rule in 1947. This study tells his story and shows how his influence has now extended far beyond the barriers of nation.
