Thsi volume takes up the story of the Indian National Movement from 1919, when the first nationalist struggle took place on an all-India scale - the Satyagraha agaisnt the Rowlatt Act, engraved in national memory by the slaughter at Jallianwala Bagh. It ends with August 1947, when India finally attained independence. The wolume aims to do the justice to the various streams by which the National Movement was fed, such as peasent unrest, the rise of the Left, Ganghian social engineering. It also stresses the importance of the ideological factor, seen in the growth of communalism that ultimately led to the Partition of the country along with Independence.
