The Turbulent Years - 1980-1996 - Pranab Mukherjee (2015)

The book establishes Pranab Mukherjee as an accomplished writer. As a political influence and stalwart his contribution to Indian politics is remarkable for almost half a century. Yet the expressions of details in the book is based on only facts that's well known or verified from public sources. No additional disclosures which may be questioned have been made in this book. As an active state head he has established great balance on issues that he personally favors or issues not to his liking with remarkable astuteness.

Overall a great read.
