Download or read book Kasturba Gandhi written by Giriraj Kishore and published by Niyogi Books. This book was released on 2018-08-16 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kasturba Gandhi is the fictionalised biography of Kasturba Gandhi, a lady as strong and great as Mahatma Gandhi. A lady who earned a place in history because of her personal sacrifices and strength of conviction in what was right as much as on account of being the wife of Mahatma Gandhi in his fight for basic human rights for Indians in South Africa and the Indian Freedom Movement. She was the first Indian woman who voluntarily faced a jail sentence in a foreign soil – in South Africa – in her fight for basic rights for Indian women. The book gives a glimpse of how a strong woman can empower herself staying within the folds of tradition and convention. It offers a rarely portrayed facet of Gandhi – a family man, a father, a husband. It shows how his transformation from Mr Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi to Mahatma Gandhi happened with the support of a woman who was a silent partner in the struggle. How she let him realise his larger goals at a cost to herself and family in the larger interests of mankind. How she willingly courted jail terms in Africa, an alien land with no grip on the language and keeping her vegetarian habits intact. How she took up the causes started by Bapu, when he was jailed in India and was imprisoned. How she breathed her last in jail - in Agha Khan Palace where she was jailed last.

Book excerpt: Disfigured in battle against Napoleon's forces, Captain Graham Veall has become a recluse, spending months alone on his estate and appearing masked in public. Yet Graham is determined not to forgo life's pleasures forever...especially the delight of a woman's touch. He hardly expects virginal Miss Margaret Leigh to respond to his advertisement for female company, thinking he sought a lady's companion. Still, the impoverished vicar's daughter is a surprising temptation he can't ignore. His proposition? That she live with him for two months as his mistress in exchange for supporting her and her brother for the rest of their lives. But Margaret has a secret. Graham once saved her life as a child and she has dreamed about him ever since. As he awakens her desire, she longs to soothe his inner wounds--though only two months with her damaged hero may not be enough....

Download or read book The Mississippi River written by James L. Shaffer and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2000 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named by Algonkian-speaking Indians, Mississippi can be translated as "Father of Waters." The river, the largest in North America, drains 31 states and 2 Canadian provinces, and runs 2,350 miles from its source to the Gulf of Mexico. The Mississippi River is truly one of the great forces that has shaped the United States into the country it is today. Although its role has changed over the past few centuries, the Mississippi has always been important to those who lived along its banks. Indigenous peoples fished its waters and depended on the waterway for transportation. Explorers and traders traveled the river in hopes of conquering more land and obtaining wealth for their countries. Settlers moved close to take advantage of the rich farmland the river provided. All of these pursuits resulted in a trade industry that brought about a social and economic transformation, when news and goods made their way downriver and livelihoods were provided. In fact, the Mississippi River's economic and strategic value was so important that when Ulysses S. Grant won the siege of Vicksburg and control of the river during the Civil War, the Confederacy was dealt a serious blow. Today, although still used to transport goods, the river has taken on yet another identity: that of entertainer. Literature, pleasure boats, and floating casinos all showcase a new dimension of this magnificent river.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Its clear now that Im going away from her. But shes the one to plan it. It seems, no matter how stupendous a human being you are, theres always an evil in you, and it counters the good whenever your own interests are harmed. Its natural. In the novel, Adie and Presha are two individuals who loved their freedom more than anything in life. Life takes a fascinating turn when they are bound together by the mystical feeling of love. They decide to be together for life in as impulsive a way as they were doing several other things. But only till the day when Adie tells her something which turned their life topsy-turvy. Initially she brushed it aside, considering it to be a darker shade of love- over possessiveness of a husband. But, can the feeling of possessiveness turn someone into a beast? This transformation of Adie from a contemporary man to a leery and controlling husband was blowing Preshas mind. Will Presha change herself to appease her husband? Had Presha actually changed after marriage or was Adies notion about Presha a delusion? Can love be so frail that some hormonal imbalance can destroy it? Or is it cause of some unexplored dimensions of human existence- a journey of the soul across lives.

Download or read book The Diary of Manu Gandhi written by and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manu Gandhi, M.K. Gandhi’s grand-niece, joined him in 1943 at the age of fifteen. An aide to Gandhi’s ailing wife Kasturba in the Aga Khan Palace prison in Pune, Manu remained with him until his assassination. She was a partner in his final yajna, an experiment in Brahmacharya, and his invocation of Rama at the moment of his death. Spanning two volumes, The Diary of Manu Gandhi is a record of her life and times with M.K. Gandhi between 1943 and 1948. Authenticated by Gandhi himself, the meticulous and intimate entries in the diary throw light on Gandhi’s life as a prisoner and his endeavour to establish the possibility of collective non-violence. They also offer a glimpse into his ideological conflicts, his efforts to find his voice, and his lonely pilgrimage to Noakhali during the riots of 1946. The first volume (1943–44) chronicles the spiritual and educational pursuits of an adolescent woman who takes up writing as a mode of self-examination. The author shares a moving portrait of Kasturba Gandhi’s illness and death and also unravels the deep emotional bond she develops with Gandhi, whom she calls her ‘mother’.

Download or read book Kasturba Gandhi: The Silent Sufferer written by N. C. Beohar and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2018-08-09 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kasturba Gandhi, the wife of Mahatma Gandhi silently endured the gradual deterioration of her four sons because of the lack of proper formal education which was denied to them by the peremptory regimentation of their illustrious father. Harilal, the eldest protested more vociferously while the three younger brothers followed the dictates of the patriarch more tamely. The four sons were active-passive resisters in their own rights. But they received almost no approbation from their father while there were words of charity for others similarly situated. The Saint ordained the pursuit of a life of poverty and self-denial. Kasturba translated and implemented these disciplines in her personal life. But could it be expected that an ambitious mother would agree to a course of similar life for her sons? This book is a simple effort to probe into these questions with regard to Kasturba Gandhi: the Silent Sufferer.

Download or read book Voices from the Bunker written by Traudl Junge and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set against the backdrop of their own lives in 1930s Germany, Traudl Junge, Hitler's personal secretary and two other aides tell us about the final weeks, days and hours of Hitler, with the Goebbels family and their harrowing family suicide. Early in 1945, as Allied forces advanced across Germany towards Berlin, Hitler rejected his advisors' pleas for him to flee and instead withdrew into a heavily fortified bunker under the Chancellery with the select group of men and women who formed his personal retinue. What actually happened in the last days has been shrouded in mystery, and questions - not least whether Hitler actually died there - remain. This book, back in print for the first time in more than a decade, draws extensively on the original testimonials and manuscripts of Traudl Junge, Hitler's personal secretary for the entire war.
