Summary Of The Book Designed for ardent history enthusiasts, India's Struggle For Independence is one of the most exhaustive and precise of the struggle of Indian Independence ever written in the literary world. Written and edited by five expert authors, it presents a detailed outlook on one of the most important periods in Indian history. The facts and details provided in this book have been gathered from oral and written sources, and various other primary sources have been used along with years of intense research. Written with a very concise approach, it is a one of a kind book that details the intricacies of the Indian Independence struggle. The struggle for Indian Independence took a long time and was something that affected the whole country. Every state in the country boasted of some kind of revolt – minor or major during this period. Numerous revolutionaries throughout the country came together in their efforts to fight against the British rule and set their country free. Few of the chapters in the book are The Fight to Secure Press Freedom, Foundation of the Congress: The Myth, World War I and Indian Nationalism: The Ghadar, An Economic Critique of Colonialism, Peasant Movements and Uprisings after 1857, The Non-Cooperation Movement—1920-1922, The Gathering Storm-1927-1929, Civil Rebellions and Tribal Uprisings, and many more. India's Struggle For Independence takes the reader on a journey across India as she was craving for her Independence. This book starts at the very first revolt of 1857 under the guidance of Mangal Pandey, from Rani Lakshmi Bai’s innate ion to free her country, Subhash Chandra Bose’s unmatched charisma and aggressive tactics, to Mahatma Gandhi’s famous civil disobedience and non-cooperation movement, to the final victory in 1947 when the British Raj finally came to an end. The book reflects a coherent narrative as it incorporates the existing historiographical advances and yet provides an utterly new and clear view of this period in Indian history. About The Authors Bipan Chandra is an Indian author, and historian, who is an expert in political history and economics. He has authored numerous other books including Communalism: A Primer, The Epic Struggle, Freedom Struggle and many more. He has taught at the University of Delhi and Jawaharlal Nehru University.

read it cover to cover. In the midway I realized that it is truly a pro-congress or pro-nationalist book. But, then also I proceeded. There are times, when it tries to justify the stand of Congress on critical matters. A reader must read it with this 'bias' in mind of authors because as already been said by others that most of the authors are from JNU and in some way or other are associated with different government institutions. However, it is a good read in of it's style of presenting history. In fact, one can easily find that history is not merely about memorizing the dates, i… (Expand) Yes

Revolutionary Terrorism! Indeed!!
ANSHUMAN MATHUR Sep 17, 2014
an extract from the book goes "the end of 1907 brought another political trend to the fore. the impatient young men of bengal took to the path of individual heroism and revolutionary terrorism( a term we use without any pejorative meaning and for want for another term).
Another copy in my collection
I for one am at a loss as to how a renowned group of 5 historians are not able to find a proper term for our freedom fighters. well let me suggest some - "radical extremists", "ultra extremists" and i am sure that if these wont fit one can easily come up with a little more reverent term than "revolutionary terroris… (Expand) Was this review helpful?

Read Wisely Congress sponsored All the 5 authors of this book are from JNU, and each of them have been in different committees of GOI, in the past/present. So, if you are a congress supoorter and a "secular", you'll love this book. I am rating this book, not for how it is written(Its style is good), but im rating it as a History student, but not as casual reader or seeking any propaganda. If you are looking for a History book, sorry, this is not for you. They have got years and facts correct, but their opinions are all in favour of Congress. This is a book for "feel good factor" for Muslims/Congress. This… (Expand)

1. Deterministic(Marxian) view of History. 2. Authors not just portrays Nehru as a great leader but as a man who is all plus not even a hint of minus as if he's incapable of doing mistakes.

A Bias and Put-forth Illusion (Propaganda) I have read this book of 'Bipin Chandra'. This book gives the biased perception of events and it presents those in a manner as it would have been ing a given propaganda of the (Politically) Authoritative entity. Anyways,we all know a thing called history-which is used to plot the political future of a country but here as we can clearly feel that politics has been used to present the history!!! Therefore,we all are being made a victim of encumbered philosophy and the explanation here indicate a 'Manipulative' view (Propaganda).

Too defensive Cons: 1) The authors defend Congress at each and every term. This part is very important - in some of the chapters - even the facts are not explained correctly. Without bothering to introduce the event as it happened, they start defending Congress' leaders stance. This is especially true for the chapters authored by Sucheta Mahajan - that is the pre-partition chapters. This not only makes the book SMELL of bias; but also makes it VERY hard for a new reader to understand events. Thus, you need to have a background on Indian History before you can understand this book.Many pages in the book … (Expand) Was this review helpful?

Biased in favour of Nehru............. I purchased the book as part of my civil services preparation. The book is good in factual part but certainly Bipan Chandra and company being part of JNU very cleverly put story to glorify Nehru and Congress... So I would just say that please read this book just for getting to know how things turned in National Movement but please don't form your opinion based on this book.....................

Revolutionary Terrorism! Indeed!!
ANSHUMAN MATHUR Sep 17, 2014
an extract from the book goes "the end of 1907 brought another political trend to the fore. the impatient young men of bengal took to the path of individual heroism and revolutionary terrorism( a term we use without any pejorative meaning and for want for another term).
Another copy in my collection
I for one am at a loss as to how a renowned group of 5 historians are not able to find a proper term for our freedom fighters. well let me suggest some - "radical extremists", "ultra extremists" and i am sure that if these wont fit one can easily come up with a little more reverent term than "revolutionary terroris… (Expand) Was this review helpful?

Read Wisely Congress sponsored All the 5 authors of this book are from JNU, and each of them have been in different committees of GOI, in the past/present. So, if you are a congress supoorter and a "secular", you'll love this book. I am rating this book, not for how it is written(Its style is good), but im rating it as a History student, but not as casual reader or seeking any propaganda. If you are looking for a History book, sorry, this is not for you. They have got years and facts correct, but their opinions are all in favour of Congress. This is a book for "feel good factor" for Muslims/Congress. This… (Expand)
The author has specialized on the national movement. He is considered an authority on Modern Indian History and is one of its most popular scholars. And yes, the book 'appears' to be biased in of polity but ultimately its up to the reader what he/she takes from the book. Ov… (View complete review)

Good Work But....
Too defensive
Bharath Dwarakanath
It's a well written work if one dont bother about the following:
Cons: 1) The authors defend Congress at each and every term. This part is very important - in some of the chapters even the facts are not explained correctly. Without bothering to introduce the event as it happened, they start defending Congress' leaders stance. This is especially true for the… (View complete review)

1. Deterministic(Marxian) view of History. 2. Authors not just portrays Nehru as a great leader but as a man who is all plus not even a hint of minus as if he's incapable of doing mistakes.
and few more things like these. My preference is, From Plassey To Partition: A History Of Modern India by SEKHAR BANDYOPA Was this review helpful?

A fantastic book!!! A fantastic book which takes you to the journey of the past. The minute detail of the past has been taken into consideration. highly recommended for UPSC exams. you wont feel as though you are reading for exam sake as it makes you so curious to know more and more. this book makes you so knowledgeable of the past you'll realise when You study it thoroughly and look into the previous question papers of IAS and say "I can answer this". A great book and A great experience!!! Was this review helpful?

A Bias and Put-forth Illusion (Propaganda) I have read this book of 'Bipin Chandra'. This book gives the biased perception of events and it presents those in a manner as it would have been ing a given propaganda of the (Politically) Authoritative entity. Anyways,we all know a thing called history-which is used to plot the political future of a country but here as we can clearly feel that politics has been used to present the history!!! Therefore,we all are being made a victim of encumbered philosophy and the explanation here indicate a 'Manipulative' view (Propaganda). One thing I would like to mention… (Expand) Was this review helpful?

Too defensive Cons: 1) The authors defend Congress at each and every term. This part is very important - in some of the chapters - even the facts are not explained correctly. Without bothering to introduce the event as it happened, they start defending Congress' leaders stance. This is especially true for the chapters authored by Sucheta Mahajan - that is the pre-partition chapters. This not only makes the book SMELL of bias; but also makes it VERY hard for a new reader to understand events. Thus, you need to have a background on Indian History before you can understand this book.Many pages in the book … (Expand) Was this review helpful?

Biased in favour of Nehru............. I purchased the book as part of my civil services preparation. The book is good in factual part but certainly Bipan Chandra and company being part of JNU very cleverly put story to glorify Nehru and Congress... So I would just say that please read this book just for getting to know how things turned in National Movement but please don't form your opinion based on this book.....................

A sad moment for all Indians It is really sad and annoying how great freedom fighters Bharat Singh , surya sen are tagged as 'revolutionary terrorists' ...totally pro congress...no wonder crimes and scares are an integral part of the country because people who show courage and stand up against the exploitation and repression are termed as 'terrorists' SHAME !
