Quite handy iis Index of Subjects to the Collected Works (1988). Reference Material and Scholarly Studies: A Brief NoteĬonstant use should be made of The Collected Works of Mahatma Gandhi, 100 volumes (Delhi: Government of India, Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, Publications Division, 1951-1995 this includes the supplementary volumes).

But Tendulkar has few insights into Gandhi’s life and thinking and is predominantly a chronicler. Tendulkar, Mahatma: Life of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (New Delhi, 1951), which has the advantage of reproducing many of Gandhi’s speeches and writings, often in their entirety, and the 4 volumes of Pyarelal’s biography, The Early Phase and The Last Phase (Ahmedabad, various years). For a more comprehensive account, see the 8-volume biography by D. There are very short biographies of Gandhi as well, some of considerable merit, such as George Woodcock’s little study, Mohandas Gandhi, for the Modern Masters series (New York: Viking Press, 1971), Catherine Clement’s Gandhi: Father of a Nation (London: Thames & Hudson, 1996) Bhikhu Parekh’s Gandhi (Oxford University Press, 1997) and Krishna Kripalani’s Gandhi: A Life (1968 reprint ed., New Delhi: National Book Trust, 1982) In 1997, on the 50th anniversary of Indian independence, a number of new studies of Gandhi’s life were released, but the more recent biographies of Gandhi are not demonstrably better than previous ones. This list does not indicate my endorsement of any particular biography, and you can pick up some other biography of your choice. Nanda, Mahatma Gandhi: A Biography (1st ed., 1958 expanded edition, New Delhi: Oxford UP, 1981) and Robert Payne, The Life and Death of Mahatma Gandhi (Dutton, 1969).
