Covering the crucial period of Gandhi's political activity from the Dandi Salt March in 1930 to the end of the second Round Table Conference in London in 1931, William L Shirer records his impressions, conversations and memoirs of MK Gandhi as a person and a shrewd politician in the showdown between British imperialism and Indian nationalism. He also highlights Gandhi's naivete in other aspects of international relations as well his flaws as a human being. Although not intended as a biography, it draws a picture of Gandhi's life from 1930 till his death in 1948. On the whole, a moving memoir, if at times slightly inclined to hero-worship.
