'Mahatma Gandhi' written by Romain Rolland, a French novelist and Nobel Prize winner, presents the life and legacy of the legendary Indian Political Leader. Mahatma Gandhi was an Indian lawyer, anti-colonial nationalist and political ethicist, who employed non-violent resistance to lead the successful campaign for India's independence from British Rule, and in turn, inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. Rolland's book shows Gandhi's greatness and humanity and promotes being human, regardless of any religion or profession. Gandhi symbolizes the human aspect of politics and political and spiritual leadership. The biography also offers some historical facts about the Indian culture and history, telling a lot about the British colonization and how they got their independence while trying to keep the violence at a minimum under the leadership of Mahatma.
