The first of the series of books that Pranab Mukherjee has written. Pranab Mukherjee as usual has kept the controversial topics within check and elaborated on the facts. Reading the book will feel like Indira Gandhi's struggle to survival than a description of policies and life of the 70s. Overall a great book to recall the 70s but at the same time has little coverage on Pakistan war. However, political events like emergency has been covered in details.
Worthwhile reading.
