Jawaharlal Nehru : A Biography, Volume II 1947-1956

---

The second volume of Sarvepalli Gopal's unique work covers the first nine years of Nehru's prime ministership. Like the first volume, it is more than a biography, describing and analyzing in detail both domestic and foreign issues of the period: the struggle between India and Pakistan for Kashmir, the first elections of free India based on adult suffrage, Korea, the Suez crisis, the invasion of Tibet and Hungary, and the demand at home for the creation of new linguistic provinces.rnThrough all these problems, Nehru led his country, no longer able to rely on Gandhi, more or less single-handedly, and yet with such success that both in India and throughout the world he was considered among the foremost statesmen of his day. He became a semilegen-dary figure in his familiar garb of white trousers, cap, and black jacket with a red rose in his lapel. Churchill named him the light of Asia" and during this period he truly reached the zenith of his power."
