Preface

The story of India's freedom struggle is an epic which must be told and retold to succeeding generations. The most important relevant questions in the study of India's freedom struggle are three: (1) Why India lost her freedom in spite of a rich and ancient civilization, vastness of the country and a massive population? (2) How India achieved her freedom overcoming all the obstacles? (3) How this freedom can be preserved?

The present study is a modest attempt to attend to these questions. It is divided into three sections. Section One deals with the history of freedom struggle, its various phases and the circumstances leading to independence and partition Section Two recalls the role of leadership in the freedom struggle, presenting profiles of more than two hundred freedom fighters who made valuable contributions to the growth of nationalist movement resulting in freedom. Section Three provides a chronology of freedom struggle from 1757 to 1947 The authors have given short comments on some of the major developments during this period It is hoped that the general readers as well as the serious students desirous to know something of the epic struggle will find the book useful.
