At the beginning of the 1930s, historian William L. Shirer was sent to India by the Chicago Tribune to cover the rise of the Independence Movement. During this time Shirer was privileged to observe Mahatma Gandhi as he launched the Civil Disobedience Campaign and to enjoy his personal friendship and confidence.

In this fascinating memoir, Shirer writes perceptively and unforgettably about Gandhi’s frailties as well as his accomplishments. Despite his greatness, Gandhi was the first to admit that he was a human being with his own prejudices and peculiarities: He could be stubborn and dictatorial, yet the magnificence of the man rose above all else.

Gandhi: A Memoir sheds a special light on the man who left such an indelible imprint on India and the world.

William Shirer best known for The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich and his reporting from Nazi Germany spent a brief time in India with Gandhi during the independence struggle in the early thirties and during the Round Table talks in London.

He says that for him this time with Gandhi was the most fruitful period of his life and as his life was filled with some of the most tumultuous history of the twentieth century. He met and knew most of the major politicians of his time but Gandhi touched and inspired him as no other and he says this experience helped him to survive what was to come.

However it is no hagiography and he doesn’t whitewash over contradictions or criticisms of Gandhi some of which are quite inexplicable.

This short memoir is not to be missed.

I feel honoured to have listened to this book about Gandhi. He fought for his beloved country of India and his people. He fought to only have what was rightfully theirs, the independence of India, which was ruthlessly and savagely taken way from the Indian people. Just for money, to make money out of someone else's suffering, it makes me ashamed to be British. No one involved in this could have ever had a conscience. But Gandhi fought with kindness and peace, with no violence, just his honest strength to only ask for his country's independence, which had been stolen away from them! A beautiful man, if only there was a civilisation in today's world that thought and treated people like Gandhi did. Well there would be no wars, no hatred, the world would be a peaceful place to live, isn't that what we all really want.🙏🕊🤍 🇮🇳
