This book has been an eye opener to me. After reading the book, now I know the contribution of these forgotten heroes in our freedom. It was not only Gandhiji who worked for India's Freedom, countless revolutionaries have laid their lives, which I had so less knowledge about.Through the accounts given here, I could picturize the lives and pains of these heroes, the guts it took to rise against the british empire.As an Indian, we must know the value of our freedom, doesn't matter you read this book or not, but we all should be aware what happened in the times before struggle. We must be aware, I feel knowing our past alone can awaken us.

The total pages is mentioned 114, it is erroneous, there are total 446 number of pages, it is a quiet thick book.

I read the original book by Babu Krishnamurthy in Kannada when I was 12 which made an indelible impression in me. I was waiting for an English translation for years to gift it to my friends and family who cant read Kannada.Amazing life of our revolutionaries need to be told and retold in many languages. Thanks to Ms. Tekal for the translationThese books that should find their way into our children's' school syllabus.

“Dushman ki goliyon ka saamna karenge, Azad hi rahein hay, Azad rahenge"So this is a biographical novel on Chandrashekhar Azad, the embodiment of courage and patriotism, based on letters, articles, books by revolutionaries and many more proves. The book starts with a march in Kashi by freedom fighters, that got attacked by the police. A boy threw a stone to a police inspector and ran away. He got punishment of flogging. He got offered for getting rid of this punishment, but refused. He enlisted his name as Azad, forever free.Then the story of the journey of this brave boy starts from a small village named Bhavra. Then his life takes him from Alirajpur to Bombay and then Kashi. After the Chaurichaura incident, he lost his trust from political parties like Congress or Swarajya party. So, he joined the revolutionary group HRA of Pandit Ramprasad Bismil, an organization inspired by Vivekananda and Ramakrishnadev.Then his new life as a revolutionary starts. The descriptions of Kakori robbery, assassination of Saunders, bombing at legislative assembly are heart trembling. But, at the end, he became almost alone. The end of this book is very tragic and it makes tears roll down from our eyes. A man, who respected women, was very truthful, always protested against any injustice, always wanted full freedom for his beloved country, is depicted in this highly readable book. I think this book should be a must read for every patriotic Indian.

Chandrashekhar Tiwari 'Azad' requires no introduction. He was an important contribution to Indian history. Azad was not just a man of action but also a man of ideals (and deserves to be remembered that way). He was a great charismatic leader as well as a great revolutionary who believed that no man should be treated badly, everyone should have equal rights and everyone should be treated well, because of such great thoughts he is still a motivational figure. The book tells you that how the greatest revolutionary of our country has been presented to us in a very narrow-way all these years! Azad was not a revolutionary only, He was a revolution himself.This one of the best book, I read after a long time. It’s a herculean task to write a historical biography. The writer should possess the qualities of a novelist and a biographer too. The biographer mainly has a mind that of a researcher. The number of references writer has provided, concisely documented in form of a simple novel is something which every researcher should learn. Thanks to author for mentioning all references and sources, which helped me to look for some more history books.This life of Chandrasekhar Azad is commonly misunderstood in view of his mustache twirling photograph, which willy-nilly projects him as a merciless killer rather than an idealist revolutionary. The book unfolds the humane, farsighted, mature, sagacious dimension of his core personality. You can actually visualize the scene while reading this book. It’s a soul-touching story of the courageous Azad. It’s a journey to read this book. A personal journey where you experience and grow with the story, see from the perspective of one of the great leader, planner and empathetic towards his members. Your outlook will never be the same in life. Babu Krishnamurthy truly is one of the greatest writers of our generation. The writer of this book has written in such a way that you will feel that you are in that century and once you start reading it you will not feel to keep it down without completing it. The author has done a commendable job of bringing to the readers viewpoint that even Azad was a human being of flesh and blood. I never got disconnected while reading this. He has covered the events through the eyes of Azad. Not a book can come closer where I lived, breathe and swayed by protagonist life. This is the most charming facet of the book is its sensitivity.I admired the way this book also showed the various characters who were with Azad such as Bhagwati Charan Vohra, Durgawati Devi(wife of Vohra) Shivaram Hari Rajguru, Yashpal (Hindi writer), Bhagat Singh. They all used to work for Hindustan Socialist Republican Association (HSRA) under the leadership of Azad. Azad took it upon himself to organize revolutionary movements groups under a single umbrella. He carry the baton forward from Ram Prasad Bismil. Revolutionary Movements by secret organization used to be called as terrorism by the British Government. HSRA slowly began spreading tentacles across Kanpur, Agra, Delhi and Lahore and satellite branches in Calcutta, Banaras, Jhansi and other places. I loved the way how Durgawati Devi helped Bhagat Singh in escaping disguise after killing John Saunders. What a brave lady Durgawati Devi was. This book also showed the back stories of Ramprasad Bismil, Surya Sen and Sachindra Nath Sanyal. Azad wanted to free Bhagat Singh and other fighters from jail, sadly that couldn’t happen. HSRA member Durgawati Devi even begged Gandhi to request the British to free Bhagat Singh and their friends but that didn’t even happen. Azad met Master Surya Sen in secret location. When Surya Sen spoke about his organization and discussed his plans at great length, Azad offered his encouragement and support. I find Yashpal behavior quite egotist, the way he was behaving was harming the organization. Just few months back I read that Yashpal was a British stooge, now after reading this book I am able to connect the dots that why he was behaving that way.Azad dedicated his life to the noble purpose of liberating his countrymen from the British tyranny. He was a man of incredible character and determination. It is quite sad that he died at the tender age of 24 when he was only developing as a thinker and a leader. This book reveals the true character of Azad whom people doesn't recognize beyond gun and bullets. My heartfelt naman to him. As the book moves towards the end, you know what's coming - the death of Azad. There are no happy endings here, much as the reader may wish it. Despite the foreboding, the narrative kept me glued.Babu Krishnamurthy is a Kannada writer who has written several very popular and critically acclaimed biographies of revolutionary heroes. Can you imagine he wrote books on Bagha Jatin, Srila Prabhupada, Ramunjacharya and Vasudev Balwant Phadke as well! All these books are only in Kannada. Hope they get translated. Thank you Manjula tekal for translating this amazing book. Thank you for introducing Azad to us. Even I recently came to know she will translate Bagha Jatin and Vasudev Balwant Phadke. All and all, do read this book. You guys are really missing something. This book will give you lots of goosebumps and tears.
