The complete life story of SUBHAS CHANDRA BOSE from the pen of Krishna Bose, an eminent member of the Bose family and pioneering Netaji researcher. Featuring 95 images and letters from family albums and Netaji Research Bureau archives. Written over six decades by an esteemed scholar and Bose family member, Netaji: Subhas Chandra Bose’s Life, Politics and Struggle vividly reveals the human being alongside the revolutionary and freedom fighter, traversing Bose’s life from childhood to his mortal end in August 1945. Krishna Bose travelled the subcontinent and the world to discover Netaji’s life. As she pieces together her findings, we gain striking new insights into Subhas Chandra Bose’s political motivations, his personal relationships, and the epic journeys and daring military campaigns he undertook to secure India’s independence. We visit the Manipur battlefields where the Indian National Army waged its valiant war, the Andamans where Netaji raised the national tricolour; Singapore, where the INA tookshape; Vienna and Prague, his favourite European cities; and Taipei, where his life was tragically cut short. We meet Netaji’s key political contemporaries – from Nehru and Gandhi to Tojo and Hitler. And we learn in gripping detail about the Azad Hind Fauj’s spirit of unity and the bravery in war of its men – as well as the women who fought as the Rani of Jhansi Regiment. Krishna Bose closely knew many personalities who feature in this book – Basanti Debi, Subhas’s adopted mother; Emilie Schenkl,his spouse; Lakshmi Sahgal, Abid Hasan and many other leading soldiers of the Azad Hind movement – who all shared vital memories that helped complete Netaji’s life story. Drawing on Netaji Research Bureau’s archives and decades of fieldwork and interviews, this book offers an unmatched portrait of Subhas Chandra Bose – the man, his politics and his epic struggle for India’s freedom. Krishna Bose’s writings were compiled, edited and translated from Bengali by her son Sumantra Bose.

Written towards the end of 1937 during his Europe trip, after being nominated the President of the Indian National Congress, An Indian Pilgrim traces Bose's life story from birth till his resignation from the Indian Civil Service. It is an astounding account of his ideological development and his singular focus on India's reconstruction in which Swami Vivekananda played a large part—"I was barely fifteen when Vivekananda entered my life. Then there followed a revolution within and everything was turned upside down." The book recounts the development of the spirit of service, sacrifice and zeal for national liberation, which were the driving forces of his life.We hope this publication will gain wide circulation so that the spirit of Subhas Chandra Bose becomes the guiding light of the country's youth in these disturbing times.

The book tells the reader how after Second World War, Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, the tallest Indian freedom fighter, slowly petered out in captivity in former Soviet Union, while Kremlin, taking full military advantage of Bose's presence in their land created fear in American and British political and military strategists and among the post-Independence Indian politicians. The research has also been an outcome of British and Indian Government documents and long interviews with senior Indian political leaders. The book is extremely sensitive as the stakeholders are not only big global powers, but the unresolved issue involves the Indian Government which puts a lid on the mystery by sticking to the fake air crash story in 1945 in Taiwan. It is bound to stir up a lot of heat with scholars – especially among, the British, Indian and American, besides exposing the role of the Russians, Indian Communists and the Nehru family that still heads the Congress now. What began as a journey into the unknown, has culminated into this book, an attempt which has taken 32 long years for the author. The research also reveals Bose's socio-political ideology about which he spoke during his Tokyo University speech on the Indian Civilization and how India would have `socialism with a human face.' It also happens to be an issue so far neglected by scholars and historians.

Subhas Chandra Bose continues to be a well-known figure in India more than fifty years after his death, but in the West remains a shadowy figure unknown to many. He made headlines worldwide as the extremist leader of the Provisional Government of Free India after its establishment by the Axis powers during World War II and was viewed as sort of an Asian Hitler or Quisling, but when the Allies crushed Bose's Indian National army, the world seemed quickly to forget him. This work is a biography of Bose, the self-proclaimed Netaji, or "revered leader," who sought to bring down the British Raj by making alliances with Rome, Berlin, and Tokyo during World War II and by helping India thrive economically and politically as a free socialist nation. It details his political activities, including radio broadcasts in which he attempted to sway his countrymen with pro-Axis propaganda and predicted a bloody end to imperialism at the hands of Axis powers, and his commanding of two liberation armies, one under Nazi authority and the other under Tokyo's auspices, made up of rehabilitated and coerced prisoners of war. Bose is noted for having unified his country's multiethnic population and enlisting the support of Indians overseas, all the while incurring the wrath of the Allies, who crushed his armies and his hopes of transforming India into a socialist nation. A discussion of his mysterious death in a plane crash while en route to an unknown location in 1945 concludes the book.
