FUGITIVE OF EMPIRE: Rash Behari Bose, Japan, and the Indian Independence Struggle
by Joseph McQuade
PENGUIN VINTAGE
₹999; 316 pages
Rash Behari Bose (1886-1945) is prominent in the pantheon of Indian nationalists and freedom fighters. He was a revolutionary terrorist but, as this biography demonstrates, it is his link with Japan, which had a role in the germination of the Indian National Army of Subhas Chandra Bose during World War II, that contributes a different dimension to the violence, non-violence binary that dominates the discourse around Indian nationalism. Rash Behari is also significant because he falls in a select category who gave Indian nationalism a global context.
