Glimpses Of World History by Jawaharlal Nehru (SPECIAL NEHRU LIBRARY EDITION)

NEHRU LIBRARY SPECIAL EDITION

On New Year's Day, 1931, Jawaharlal Nehru began a remarkable series of letters on the history of the world to his daughter, Indira, then, thirteen years old. Over the next thirty months, Nehru wrote nearly two hundred letters in this series, which were later published as Glimpses of World History.

With its panoramic sweep and its gripping narrative flow, all the more remarkable for being written in prison where Nehru had no recourse to reference books or a library, Glimpses of World History covers the rise and fall of empires and civilizations from Greece and Rome to China and West

P.S. Beware of pirated copies of important books (with missing sections) circulating online.
