Product description
Written over five months in Ahmednagar Fort prison in 1944, The Discovery of India is Jawaharlal Nehru's attempt to understand the country he was helping to free. It moves from the Indus Valley civilisation through the Vedas, the Buddha, the Mauryas and the Mughals to British rule and the national movement, mixing history with personal reflection. It is a long, reflective book rather than a textbook, and it remains a key text for understanding the ideas behind modern India.
