"This is an account in pictures and words of one of the greatest Indians of all times. Jawaharlal Nehru\'s multi-dimensional personality is traced from his childhood, early identification with the aspirations of the people under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi, his crusade for India\'s independence, and his efforts to build a Modern India as its first Prime Minister.

Nehru loved by millions at home and abroad was a deeply humane person, with multifarious interests in all facets of life. The pictures of Nehru along with several historical chapters of Modern India emerge through the pages of this book."
