Jawaharlal Nehru The Early Days

"I am proud of that great inheritance that has been and is ours and I am conscious that I too, like all of us, am a link in that unbroken chain which goes back to the dawn of history in the immemorial past of India. That chain I would not break, for I treasure it and seek inspiration from it."

These words of Jawaharlal Nehru extracted from his will provide the rationale for the selection of Nehru as the last regular title of the Amar Chitra Katha series that retold many a tale from Indian mythology, legend, history and folklore.

The volume traces the ancestry of Nehru and dwells over the early years of his life that helped shape this great man of destiny.
