Om An Augusteer's Reminiscences
On the occasion of the 50th Anniversary of the 'Quit India Movement' i.e. on 9th August 1992, Shri Ganesh Shukla, Journalist and Freedom Fighter, started a column 'An Augusteer's Reminiscences', in the New Wave, New Delhi, the journal of which he was Founder Editor.
The series of articles which have now been compiled into this book, was published between 1992 to 1995.
Shri Ganesh Shukla gives a graphic account of his experiences and interactions with many of the players and heroes, both renowned and un-sung, of the struggle for India's Independence and the early years of the new Nation, the tumultuous period between 1945 to 1964.
The Reminiscences were written from memory and from Shri Shukla's conversations with former colleagues and Comrades.
