Mohandas Gandhi and Winston Churchill: India's moral leader and
Great Britain's greatest Prime Minister. Born five years and seven
thousand miles apart, they became embodiments of the nations they
led. Both became living icons, idolized and admired around the
world. Today, they remain enduring models of leadership in a
democratic society. Yet the truth was Churchill and Gandhi were
bitter enemies throughout their lives. This book reveals, for the
first time, how that rivalry shaped the twentieth century and
beyond. For more than forty years, from 1906 to 1948, Gandhi and
Churchill were locked in a tense struggle for the hearts and minds
of the British public, and of world opinion. Although they met only
once, their titanic contest of wills would decide the fate of
nations, continents, peoples, and ultimately an Empire. Here is a
sweeping epic with a fascinating supporting cast, and a brilliant
narrative parable of two men whose great successes were always
haunted by personal failure - and whose final moments of triumph
were overshadowed by the loss of what they held most dear.
