Summary

The subjection of India, its cause and cure. The Russian literary giant and the Indian revolutionary leader came into contact when Gandhi discovered Tolstoy's "A Letter to a Hindu" (written in 1963, to an Indian nationalist who was seeking support for India's independence from British colonial rule). Gandhi was so impressed with Tolstoy's ideas that he decided to write to Tolstoy and ask permission to publish the letter in South Africa
