The story is told largely in his own words. Part II of the book compiles 388 extracts, mainly from the writings of Gandhiji from 1891 to 1909, that are relevant to this evolution. The introductory part, Part I, leads the reader through these extensive extracts to weave a connected story of the development of Gandhiji, his campaigns and his ideas druing this period. The book graphically describes the story of the birth of Satyagraha in the historic meeting held at the Empire Theatre of Johannesburg on 11 September 1906. In the extracts entitled “The South African Jail Diary,” it offers a hair-raising account of the tortures that Gandhiji, as also his family and followers, had to go through in the jails of a foreign land in the pursuit of Satyagraha. The book also documents the two farewell meetings of July 1914, held in Durban and Verulam on the eve of the departure of Gandhiji from South Africa, where Gandhiji was first formally addressed as Deshbhakta Mahatma. The title of “Hindu Patriot” comes from Leo Tolstoy, who deeply admired Gandhiji “except for his Hindu patriotism| Item type | Current location | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
