The book includes 18 essays written by educator-turned-politician Krishna Bose over four decades. Krishna Bose, wife of Netaji’s nephew Sisir Bose, wrote most of the essays in Bengali for various leading publications.

The essays in this anthology, according to Sumantra Bose, are the result of Krishna Bose’s exhaustive and seminal research on Netaji’s life. He hopes that the English translation would make the essays accessible to a wider audience, especially the youth who continue to be inspired by the great freedom fighter’s life and politics
