The Last Fast - The True Story of the Assassination of Mahatma Gandhi
by S K Shravan
(England UK)
This book describes the last 18 days in Mahatma Gandhi's life and the events that led to his killing.
It tells why a preacher of non-violence met his death by violence, and the real motive of his killer and what he said in the court to justify his brutal act.
The Last Fast reveals the victim's last words and puts an end to all the tittle-tattle created by his followers and the government of the day soon after his death.
"I have no desire to achieve martyrdom but if it comes in my way I will embrace it with open arms." -
Gandhi days before his assassination"I had to respond to a persistent call from the depth of my soul that urged me to get rid of the culprit at once knowing that I shall have to sacrifice my life too." -
