Leaders of the countrys freedom movement accepted partition of the Indian Sub-continent (albeit reluctantly) as the only solution to Hindu-Muslim problem under conditions then obtaining in the country. Pakistan drove out all Hindus and Sikhs and has, therefore, solved the problem once and for all times. India has sizeable Muslim population even after partition. This population has been steadily growing. The Hindu-Muslim problem remains far from solved so far as India is concerned. Mahatma Gandhi spent his life-time in solving the problem but failed completely. Will the small men who shout Gandhis name from the house-top succeed where the formidable Mahatma had himself failed? What are the implications of a second failure on the Hindu-Muslim front?

This book was written by a Hindu, the grandson of Mohandas K. Gandhi. His intent, in writing on eight Muslims and their influence on India in the twentieth century, is to reduce the gulf between Hindu and Muslims. Focusing on figures viewed as heroes by sub-continent Muslims, he shows that they can be admired by Hindus as well—that they need not be frozen in Hindu minds as foes. Here is a fascinating account of twentieth-century India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh told through biographical sketches of eight men: Sayyid Ahmed Khan (1817-1898), Fazlul Huq (1873-1962), Muhammad Ali Jinnah (1876-1948), Muhammad Iqbal (1876-1938), Muhammad Ali (1878-1931), Abul Kalam Azad (1888-1958), Liaqat Ali Khan (1895-1951), and Zakir Husain (1897-1969).

The phase being after the Quit India movement was the last in the series of his civil disobedience movements that he launched. Historians and contemporary commentators interpret his change in strategy in not resorting to mass movements, as a very significant change in dealing with the tangled web of India s freedom struggle. He plunged into direct negotiations with Jinnah (Sept. 1944) even as he (the Mahatma) was not even a member of the Congress Party. While this was not a facade, he knew that he carried the Congress and a large section of the Indian political spectrum with him. These bilateral negotiations were a prelude to the subsequent talks between the antagonists (the Congress and the Muslim League), arranged through the initiative and intervention of the British Government. These were the Simla Conference (1945), the Cabinet Mission s efforts (1946) and finally the discussions on the Mountbatten Plan. Almost simultaneous to these moves occurred the horrendous communal riots between the Hindus and the Muslims and the Muslims and the Sikhs during which the Mahatma s moral shield demonstrated what a one-man s ethical verities could do to confront and contain the overflow of inhuman violence.
