Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. Chakravarti Rajagopalachari (1878-1972), popularly known as Rajaji, was the first Governor General of Independent India (1948-50). A lawyer by profession, he was drawn into the non-violent nationalist movement steered by Mahatma Gandhi and came to be known as his conscience-keeper . He was awarded India s highest civilian award, the Bharat Ratna in 1955. A prolific writer, he is also known for his books on the Mahabharata and the Ramayana. This volume looks at the period when Rajaji became involved in the freedom movement (1907 21). It is a collection of articles and letters he wrote to prominent leaders like Gandhi, Gokhale, Vijiaraghavachariar, and in newspapers like The Hindu, Madras Mail and Commonweal. These give us an insight into the thoughts of one of the most important leaders of the Indian national movement in the Madras Presidency. Selected Works of C. Rajagopalachari, Vol. I, 1907-21 is the first in a series of ten volumes published in association with Nehru Memorial Museum and Library (NMML) on the writings of Rajaji.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. Selected Works of C. Rajagopalachari, Vol. 2, 1921 22, is part of a series of ten volumes that gather together the writings of Rajaji over the period 1907 72. The second volume covers a brief but significant phase in Rajaji s political life, beginning with his arrest for participating in the non-cooperation movement in December 1921 and his imprisonment in Vellore Central Jail. Rajaji s jail diary is published here with detailed annotations for the first time. By the time Rajaji was released from jail in March 1922, Mahatma Gandhi, by then his close associate, had been arrested and remanded to Yeravda Jail. The mantle of bringing out the nationalist weekly Young India fell on Rajaji s shoulders. Through the columns of Young India,Rajaji kept alive Gandhiji s message of non-violence and his emphasis on the importance of khaddar and the spinning wheel. Besides his various editorials and articles in Young India, the present volume also contains letters, speeches and other writings of Rajaji during these years. The volume ends with his spirited defence of the non-cooperation programme opposing council entry at the 37th Session of the Indian National Congress at Gaya in December 1922. Overall, the collection offers a close commentary on the non-cooperation movement and its aftermath.
