This book gives the insight into the different situations and scenarios that lead to the partition of India at the time of Independence. It details about the lack of clear vision of then leaders of Indian National Congress about united India and the mistakes which lead to division of Indian population based on the religion.
A very good read to understand the tragedy which is still haunting South Asia's stability.
