Another thing that I liked about the book, is the way he told the story. I did not like this because I like to be challenged when I read books. He did not use to many difficult words, so I did not have to stop and look things up. I liked how in the beginning of the book the author used a song to illustrate his point on how some Indians wanted to eat meat.An unattractive part of this book was the authors’ word usage. An example of this feature was the way he put things out in the open. This book did not just drag on, it was at sometimes exciting. I thought this was a very interesting book. He was assassinated in Delhi on January 30, 1948, by a Hindu fanatic who mistakenly thought his way of thinking was both pro-Hindus, and pro-Muslim. He assumed leadership of protest campaigns and gradually developed his techniques and tenets of nonviolent resistance.Gandhi spent decades devoting himself to non violent protests and attempting to improve the status of the lowest classes of society, the casteless untouchables, whom he called harijans “children of God.” His greatest failure was his inability to dissuade India Muslims, led by Muhammad Ali Jinnah, from creating a separate state, Pakistan, Gandhi opposed the separation of the subcontinent with such vigor that he launched a mass movement against it. During these years Gandhi’s humiliating experiences of severe racial discrimination propelled him into agitation on behalf of the Indian community of South Africa. From 1893 to 1914 he worked for an Indian firm in South Africa. He went to London to study law when he was 18 and was admitted to the bar in 1891. His father was so hurt by this deception that the way he responded to it changed Gandhi.Gandhi was married by arrangement at 13. He was so troubled by his conscience, that he wrote a letter of confession, and he apologized to his father. There is a story from long ago that says Gandhi stole money from his house to buy something. Gandhi stated that he was most influenced by his mother, whose life “was an endless chain of fasts and vows.” He was very affected by what his mother did, and how she lived. His mother was a devout follower of Jainism, a religion in which ideas of nonviolence and being a vegetarian are paramount. Although his father was a chief minister for the maharaja of Porbandar, the family came from the traditional caste of grocers and moneylenders, (the name Gandhi means “grocer”). Mohatma Karamchand Gandhi was born in Porbandar, India, on October 2, 1869. The Life Of Ghandi: A Book Review Essay, Research Paper
