He inspired and enraged,  challenged and galvanized many millions of men and women around the  world. He lived almost entirely in the shadow of the British Raj, which  for much of his life seemed a permanent fact, but which he did more than  anyone else to destroy, using revolutionary tactics. In a world defined  by violence on a scale never imagined before and by ferocious Fascist  and Communist dictatorship, he was armed with nothing more than his  arguments and example.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis magnificent book tells the story of  Gandhi''s life, from his departure from South Africa to his assassination  in 1948. It is a book with a Tolstoyan sweep, both allowing us to see  Gandhi as he was understood by his contemporaries and the vast, varied  Indian societies and landscapes which he travelled through and changed  beyond measure. Drawing on many new sources and animated by its author''s  wonderful sense of drama and politics, Gandhi is a major reappraisal of the crucial years in this titanic figure''s story.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57306502889854,"sku":"NW9780141044231","price":17.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9780141044231.jpg?v=1778712705","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/products\/gandhi-1914-1948","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
