Letters to Hitler, Roosevelt and Churchill, Gandhi's high school report card, a savage letter from his son and even a diet he had created for Bose. All of these resources can be found in Pramod Kapoor’s book “Gandhi An Illustrated Biography”. This book takes you through the life of Mahatma Gandhi from his birth to his assassination. It's also an excellent guide to India's freedom struggle. The photographs, letters and poems make this book a visual treat, especially for the young adult audience. What makes this book truly special is the amount of research that has been put into it.
The book addresses every aspect of his life, including the complex nature of Gandhi's relationships with other freedom fighters and his family and followers. Sensitive topics like his relationship with his female followers are chronicled in a sensitive and appropriate way.
I recommend this book to readers aged 13 and up, and strongly recommend it to adults.
