Vallabhbhai Patel (1875-1950) left his mark not only on the map of India but also on the minds of her people. He is said to have bequeathed the idea of an integrated India to the nation, and is often called the ''Iron Man,'' with an uncanny foresight and a clear vision of where independent India''s future lay. He was no superman, he was a statesman gifted with the rare quality of astuteness and pertinacity in his approach to problems. He was more than Bismark in many ways. His decisive approach to the merger of the 565 princely States into the Union of India is a hair-raising story of grit, gumption and guts. It is the story of how a man, believed to be ''the accurate bowman of Gandhi''s struggle...who knew no retreat'' wooed, cajoled and coerced Princes'' India into becoming a People''s India.

Soft cover. Zustand: New. Vallabhbhai Patel (1875-1950) left his mark not only on the map of India but also on the minds of her people. He is said to have bequeathed the idea of an integrated India to the nation, and is often called the 'Iron Man,' with an uncanny foresight and a clear vision of where independent India's future lay. He was no superman, he was a statesman gifted with the rare quality of astuteness and pertinacity in his approach to problems. He was more than Bismark in many ways. His decisive approach to the merger of the 565 princely States into the Union of India is a hair-raising story of grit, gumption and guts. It is the story of how a man, believed to be 'the accurate bowman of Gandhi's struggle.who knew no retreat' wooed, cajoled and coerced Princes' India into becoming a People's India. Patel was convinced, 'Small states cannot subsist as independent entities without endangering Indian unity' and this book tells the bold and brazen story of how state by state, from Junagadh to Patna, Travancore to J&K, that is, two-thirds of the land was shepherded under Mother India's wings by one man's steadfast commitment to the larger cause, 'no further division' of the subcontinent. India is today suffering the consequences of ignoring Patel's advise on Kashmir and China. Though it covers just five years of Sardar Patel's life and times, this is a work of historicity that every Indian must read to understand how India came to be the India that Google today shows us.
