Britain is at war, European democracies are falling rapidly and the public are unaware of this dangerous new world. Just days after his unlikely succession to Prime Minister, Winston Churchill, faces this horror - and a sceptical King and a party plotting against him. He wonders how he can capture the public mood and does so, magnificently, before leading the country to victory.It is this fascinating period that Anthony McCarten captures in this deeply researched, gripping day-by-day (and often hour-by-hour) narrative. In doing so he revises the familiar view of Churchill - he made himself into the iconic figure we remember and changed the course of history, but through those turbulent and dangerous weeks he was plagued by doubt, and even explored a peace treaty with Nazi Germany.

He served the country as member of Parliament for five decades and as prime Minister of India for six years. He is an orator par excellence, whose speeches are listened with attention by friends and foes inside and outside Parliament. He used the Parliament as an educational Forum as well as political weapon and enhanced the prestige of parliamentary institution. He did not mince words when criticism is due or warning necessary. But his criticism has not hurt his opponents. His sharp intellect and wit is almost tailor-made for parliamentary debate. Shri Vajpayee often rises above party politics and gives primacy to National interest over political consideration and he always appreciated well taken opposition point of view. As a prime Minister he also proved to be an achiever par excellence. He gave nuclear dimension to India's military power without fear of sanctions but also established close friendly relations with President Clinton of the U. S. And prime Minister Nawaz Sharif of Pakistan. Even after the Kargil betrayal he extended the hand of friendship to General Musharaf and took steps to establish cordial relations with China and other neighbours in tune with his words \"I Can change history but not Geography\". His domestic achievements were starting highway quadrangle with rural road connectivity, Chandrayan programme, linking rivers to solve irrigation and flood problems, cheap and speedy communication system and establishing 'Sagar Mala' To connect 4000 kms. Of coast-line. He made India a food grain exporter, a major out-sourcing country and enriched the country with over billion dollar foreign exchange reserves. However his constructive role as a parliamentarian is hidden in the documents of Parliament and is not so well-known. He introduced 22 bills in all including 20 when in opposition of which nine were constitutional Amendment bills and 2 when he was the foreign minister of India. They show his painstaking exercise in strengthening the democratic foundation of our country, his deep concern for health and welfare of the people, faith in independence of judiciary, Taming money power in elections and above all human touch towards weak and handicapped people.

B. Kripalani, Maulana Azad and Jayaprakash Narayan, among others met at Sevagram to reflect and deliberate on Gandhis assassination. Sixty years later, in a contemporary and evocative response to that moving introspection, a group of scholars, thinkers and writers gathered at the Sabarmati Ashram to once again reflect on Gandhis death as absence and memory. This book brings together these reflections, in all their hesitation, tentativeness, openness and counter-factual agreement. Spontaneous and engaging, it raises some important questions what is it to speak of Gandhis death? How do we understand the meaning of his assassination? How did the new nation comprehend the nature of his absence? Did his death burden us forever? Or did it in fact allow the nation and the state to explore new directions? The sublime photographs of Henri Cartier Bresson that accompany the text, cover the story of the aftermath of Gandhis assassination and his funeral photographs that capture, as Sadanand Menon puts it, not the portrait of any man, but the portrait of a nation in the deepest moment of its sorrow. Be it the brilliantly composed image of Jawaharlal Nehru on the gate of the Birla Ghar, delivering his moving The light has gone out of our lives and there is darkness everywhere speech , or the spontaneous rhythm of the crowds gathering around Gandhis funeral cortege moving through New Delhis Raj Path and Tilak Marg to the cremation site the images provide visual testimony to the silence and intensity of the event.

Where they could live, how they could dress, whether they could go to a shop, a stream, walk a street or mingle, enter a temple, whom and how they could marry, which scriptures applied to whom, whether their actions, innocent or criminal, would attract punishment or impunity.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDescribing brilliantly the passage of Hinduism into its modern avatar, the book celebrates women and men across the caste spectrum—pioneers Savitribai Phule, M.C.

These are the lands that nurture deadly acronyms-like AFSPA, an act of Parliament that with impunity hurts and kills citizens. Lands where militants not only battle the Indian government but also each other in a frenzy of ego, politics and survival, and enforce 'parallel' administrations. Sudeep Chakravarti's journey introduces the reader to stories that chill, anger and offer uneasy reflection. A fourteen-year-old Naga girl who dies resisting a soldier's attempt to rape her-and is now an icon. An eleven-year-old girl abducted by police in Manipur because they want to trap her parents. A faked encounter in Imphal that kills a former rebel, and also an innocent lady and her unborn child. A family in Kohima still trying to come to terms with the death of their youngest child in a mortar attack. Chakravarti also interacts with security and military officials, senior bureaucrats, top rebel leaders, and human rights and social activists, to paint a terrifying picture of a society and a people brought repeatedly to breakdown through years of political conceit and deceit, and stress and conflict. In prose suffused with a rare understanding of the region and its people, and with remarkable insight into its convoluted politics, Highway 39 brings into focus a region long neglected and often forgotten by Mainland India, a region surrounded by nations historically inimical to India-and yet, which offer a dream gateway to the markets of East Asia.

Beginning with the turmoil of Partition, the book treads through all the major incidents witnessed by India and its people, from the 1940s to the present. Born in the lap of luxury, S.P. Rawal’s childhood was spent in Pakistan. His family’s fortunes vanished in the aftermath of the Partition and they had to live in a refugee camp. His family’s dire financial situation made him become a consummate salesman even as a child. Lady luck smiled and he got a job in an MNC and had an exponential rise thereafter.

The cosmopolitan fabric of a vibrant trading society - with its Jewish and Arab merchants, Chinese pirate heroes and masterful Hindu Zamorins - was ripped apart, heralding an age of violence and bloodshed. One prince, however, emerged triumphant from this descent into chaos. Shrewdly marrying Western arms to Eastern strategy, Martanda Varma consecrated the dominion of Travancore, destined to become one of the most dutiful pillars of the British Raj. What followed was two centuries of internecine conflict in one of India's premier princely states, culminating in a dynastic feud between two sisters battling to steer the fortunes of their house on the eve of Independence. Manu S. Pillai's retelling of this sprawling saga focuses on the remarkable life and work of Sethu Lakshmi Bayi, the last - and forgotten - queen of the House of Travancore. The supporting cast includes the flamboyant painter Raja Ravi Varma and his wrathful wife, scheming matriarchs of 'violent, profligate and sordid' character, wife-swapping court favourites, vigilant English agents, quarrelling consorts and lustful kings. Extensively researched and vividly rendered, The Ivory Throne conjures up a dramatic world of political intrigues and factions, black magic and conspiracies, crafty ceremonies and splendorous temple treasures, all harnessed in a tragic contest for power and authority in the age of empire.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NEW BOOK WORLD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47034724614384,"sku":null,"price":559.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/0402\/4048\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_97ace95a-a815-45c3-b2c3-80f6afbbde47.jpg?v=1737713908"},{"product_id":"lords-of-the-deccan-southern-india-from-the-chalukyas-to-the-cholas","title":"Lords of the Deccan: Southern India from the Chalukyas to the cholas","description":"","brand":"NEW BOOK WORLD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47035121893616,"sku":"","price":549.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/0402\/4048\/files\/Screenshot_2025_0124_161041.jpg?v=1737715329"},{"product_id":"quirky-history-book-1","title":"Quirky History: Book 1","description":"\u003cp\u003eEccentric maharajas and nawabs, bizarre believe it or not tales and hilarious twists and turns come together in this first book of the Quirky History series.
