Synopsis In the long drawn political struggle for the attainment of swaraj several leaders representing various regions of our sub-continent played their historic role. The author has intelligently weaved the theme having deep bearing on the role of Jhansi in the freedom movement. Each chapter contains the significant phase of the movement which generated the spirit of patriotism among the millions of people. The role of leadership in this region was remarkable in every respect. People came out in large number, demonstrated in a nonviolent way, courted arrest, suffered in jails with a smile on their faces and ultimately achieved the desired goal of complete Independence. Undoubtedly it was a significant movement spearheaded by selfless workers who remained non-violent for several years. This book would be useful for teachers, scholars and students in India and abroad.
