Shree Sardar is the man of his great spirit and sacrifices. He has sacrificed his whole life for MAA Bharati, and never even desire anything in return. When people were ready and all enthused to Award with him India's first PM, Gandhi and Nehru played drama which is root of India's each and every single problem.
I wish Shree Sardar was first PM of India!!!
Please God, send him back to make The India as he dreamed about.

While westerners know about Gandhi and Nehru, too few know about Sardar Patel and his achievements. His lasting achievement was to quell dissension in rebel states and unite 560 princely states and British India into the whole we now know as independent India. This book tells the story.

I would not like to rate the book as it is on facts on the history about an individual who had contributed to our freedom and country's future.

This book has been exceptionally informative about history.

A poorly written book on a very good topic / person.
Its a pity that so many of us have not learnt about Patel's momentous contributions to the formation of a united Indian country.

Sardar Patel played crucial role during the independence movement of India. Thanks to Patel, India's almost 600 kingdoms joined the country. His diplomacy and vision deserves more praise than have ever been given.
