It’s going fine. Research is underwhelming in parts where I’m familiar that makes me question parts I didn’t know about. I’ve read Ambedkars response to the partition and Gandhi’s. This seems to have purposefully painted a balanced view but balanced for the sake of being balanced.
That being said, it’s difficult to know whether I have a biased view too.

What a splendid book. There are a few parts that are dissonant with what Ambedkar says in his treatise, but it’s interesting.
