Samenvatting:

Gandhi has been the source of inspiration of millions of men, but:
Did you know that he was a lawyer that at the beginning of his career was practically a failure?
Did you know that he got the inspiration of non-violence and civil disobedience by reading Thoreau, an American philosopher?
Did you know that he was arrested more than 10 times spending about 6 years in prison for defending his rights and those of his people?

The second volume of the series Great Men in History is dedicated to this great man, Gandhi.

With black-and-white illustrations and sidebars with contextual information, this biography is recommended for kids or anyone who wants to know about him in an easy and short read (10,000 words).
