Gandhi and South Africa, 1914-1948

It is only a truly historical perspective that can put things straight. And in this immensely important book Enuga Reddy and Gopal Gandhi have put us all in their debt. Here for the first time the true significance of Mohandas Gandhi’s sojourn in South Africa has been spelt out. And it is urgent that, at this present time of negotiation for a truly democratic, non-racist, society based on human rights and human dignity, Gandhiji’s contribution should be recognised and honoured.
