Publisher's Synopsis

Did Savarkar battle a stormy sea when he attempted his legendary escape at Marseilles? Did Gandhiji and he stay together 'as friends' in London as Savarkar claimed during Gandhiji's assassination trial? Did he turn against Muslims because of the cruelty of jailers in the Andamans? What is one to make of his 'mercy petitions' to the British? Did he pledge to be 'politically useful' to the British and accept conditions for his release that even the British had not demanded? During the Quit India movement, did Savarkar promise 'whole-hearted cooperation' to the British? What did he seek from the British? Was Savarkar the one who showed Subhas Bose the path that Netaji then followed?
