This will change some people's views about what caused partition of India, Dec 16 2009
By S. Akbari "Ather" - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: India Wins Freedom: The Complete Version (Paperback)
Although the book has been in circulation for a long time, the release of hidden parts of its manuscript provides new information that is important for those intrested in the causes of partition of India. I was amazed to read about the roles played by leaders on both sides. Was Jinnah actually in favour of division of India or he was pushed to wall to make that decision? You can make a judgement about his role in this book.I would have liked to know. however, why the author wanted parts of manuscript be not released for thirty years. Does anyone know?

An Honest and Unbiased Account of the Freedom Movement, Nov 3 2006
By Sufi Shah - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: India Wins Freedom (Paperback)
This book is one of the most honest and unbiased account of the Indian freedom movement. A must read for all Indians/Pakistanis who otherwise have a biased view of the events, based on the history books available in their countries.In this book, Maulana Azad describes the political events between 1939-1947 and explains his views on the political blunders that lead to partition. While Maulana is severely critical of Jinnah and the Muslim League for playing the communal card, he does not shy away from blaming Nehru for the failure of the Cabinet Mission plan, and Sardar Patel for his indifference towards the loss of muslim life in the aftermath of partition. It is the sad story of a truly secular and nationalist man, whose dream of independance was tainted by the partition of a nation he loved so dearly. Truly honest and thought provoking.

A Bias less Insight into the Indian Freedom Movement, May 10 2005
By Dr Khurram Shahzad "KS" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: India Wins Freedom: The Complete Version (Paperback)
The book creates a clear picture of the development of freedom movement in India. It brings out weaknesses which brought up the divided minds which ultimately lead to partition. The reader experiences much pain while going through the outcomes of division which were realized by few. Today's IndoPak presents the testimony of the truthful observations and predictions of Maulana Azad. I think it is the "BOOK OF FUTURE". Very few, especially among Muslims, were able to realize what they were doing by favoring partition. I hope they would surely realize one day what they did and quickly so if they read this book. It would be useful for a Pakistani to read this book.
Listmania!
