The history has been simplified and summerized perfectly by Nehru.It's a really admirable book for history nerds, not boring or heavy going at all.
Talking about india more than other countries a bit made me bored that I think is ok beacuase it's been written by a patriotic author.

    I love this book for more than one reason. Here you will find a father who loves his daughter morethan any other father in the history of manking. His love has been shown in his letters. He loved her tobe great daughter. I think these letters has given a great prime minister to India. Here Jawaharlalnehru was a ideal father. Whose love made his daughter in a purposeful one.

    simply amazing.

    Its almost unbelievable in its scope, and that too written by a person who did not had the option of referring to other literary sources.

    We see Jawaharlal Nehru in the role of a caring father leaving a legacy of his accumulated knowledge and insight for his daughter.

    I am awed by his literary accomplishment. Hats off.
