This book covers the last phase of Mahatma Gandhi's life in which the results of all the experiments tlaat he carried out throughout his career were put through their severest and final test. Pyarelal was acutely aware of Gandhi's state of mind. Indeed, of all Gandhi's associates, Pyarelal is the most semitive and articulate in describing these moods. The present work represents an attempt by one who had the opportunity at first hand the insight to represent the events correctly-Pyarelal, secretary to Gandhi. The Last Phase deals with the last 21 months of Gandhiji's life beghung with his release from detention in the Aga Khan's palace in May 1944. It describes in fair detail the political developments of those years resulting from the British government's intention to relinquish power in India, Pyarelal says: "During those fateful days, like a Titan he rushed from one danger spot to another to prop up the crumblmg heavens." The author has attempted to condense the epic story of those days in 1946-47. The last volume of Pyarelal's biography of Gandhi has been condensed by Meghani into an easy-to-read, lucid account to make it more accessible to the general reader.
