This is a bonafide autobiography of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, the unedited and original version. Written towards the end of 1937 during the European trip after being nominated as the Rashtrapati of Bharatbarsha, "An Indian Pilgrim" traces Netaji`s life story from birth till his resignation from the Indian Civil Service. In this autobiography the author provides an honest and sincere account of his childhood memories, his life as a school-goer with a batch of cousins and relatives in Cuttack, his formative years of intellectual development as a promising student of Presidency College in Calcutta, his quest for spiritual enlightenment and his experiences as a student at the prestigious Cambridge University. It is an astounding account of his ideological development and his singular focus in India`s reconstruction in which a large part was played by Swami Vivekananda - 'I was barely fifteen when Vivekananda entered my life. Then there followed a revolution within and everything was turned upside down.' The book recounts the development of the spirit of service, sacrifice and zeal for national liberation, which were the driving forces of his life. The autobiography also throws much light on Netaji’s indomitable spirit in the freedom movement of India. To sum up, the autobiography written in a simple and lucid language engages the reader in a candid dialogue with the greatest national hero India has ever produced.
