About the Book
It is a biography of a pioneer educationist, a visionary, a man of lofty ideals who led a life of selfless service to the society, the legendary Mahatma Hans Raj.
It is a biography with a personal touch of the author, Late Shri Marwah, a leading adovcate, an old DAV, a staunch Arya Samajist, who had the good fortune of seeing Mahatma Hans Raj’s life and achievements from close quarters, especially the emergence and growth of the DAV movement.
At the same time, it provides a bird’s eye-view of the golden era of Arya Samaj when a wave of social resurgence and reforms and patriotism was sweeping Punjab like a tidal wave.
