Bringing alive the story of one of the most revered leaders in modern history through 150 rare and inspiring incidents from his life--tracing his evolution from a shy boy to a courageous leader--this collectible edition is a tribute to the man who showed the world what calm, steady heroism looks like. Peppered with unusual insights, trivia and gorgeous illustrations, this one-of-a-kind book will give readers the answers to many pressing contemporary issues while showing how relevant Gandhiji remains even today.
