‘Rajmohan Gandhi’s weighty, authoritative and comprehensive biography is a great achievement’
Financial Times
‘Rajmohan takes us at a leisurely pace through the broad sweep of Gandhi’s personal and public life.’
Times Literary Supplement
‘A great achievement.’
William Dalrymple
This monumental and authoritative biography of one of the most intriguing and complex figures of the 20th century, written by his grandson, is the first to give a complete and balanced account of Gandhi’s remarkable life, the development of his beliefs, his political campaigns, and his complex relationships with his family.
Written with unprecedented insight and access to family archives, this definitive biography of Gandhi sheds new light on the life of a man who was far more complicate and conflicted than his received public image suggests. Gandhi: The Man, His People and the Empire gives us the true Gandhi, the man as well as the legend.

Rajmohan Gandhi: Lessons on reconciliation
Rajmohan Gandhi, the grandson of Mahatma Gandhi, has dedicated his life’s work to preserving his grandfather’s legacy of nonviolence and reconciliation. A historian, biographer and human rights activist, Gandhi shared his insight with the Ohio State community on September 7 when he delivered two lectures. His talks focused on the 1947 partition of India and the critical message of peaceful resolution left by one of the world’s best known political and spiritual leaders.
His reflections and analysis of the partition of India and its aftermath noted how personal the conflict was to millions of people. The partition divided British-ruled India into two new, independent nations: India and Pakistan. Gandhi shared views and historical references about the division of boundaries along religious lines – Hindu and Muslim – and the two-nation theory. The partition ended nearly two centuries of British rule, sparked violence, led to the largest mass migration in history, and continues to cause conflict between India and Pakistan today.
