### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bio about an Important Man in Indian History
*by G***S on February 23, 2014*

Subhas Chandra Bose is revered in India, but virtually unknown in the U.S. At least, my friends and I had never heard of him! He was an important figure in the effort to gain independence from Britain. I encourage those interested in understanding India to read this book!
