"Think of the 400 million people hungering for freedom... They are not savages... Britain should be ashamed of holding these people as slaves": First edition of Mahatma Gandhi's My Appeal to the British
First edition of this collection of articles published by Mahatma Gandhi between April and July of 1942 which culminated in the Quit India movement and led to his arrest. Octavo, original cloth. Near fine in a near fine price-clipped dust jacket. Edited by Anand T. Hingorani.
Here in a compact and consecutive form is the whole record of Ghandi's final and most urgent appeal to the British for India's freedom, as voiced by him during three crucial months - April 26 to July 26, 1942. Collected and edited by Anand T. Hingorani of Karachi just one month before the fateful meeting of the Indian Congress, Nehru himself sent the collection to his American publisher just one week before his own arrest, with the words, "These articles are of obvious importance to those who seek to understand events in India."
