Description

“Glimpses of World History” by Jawaharlal Nehru is a remarkable collection of letters that Nehru wrote to his daughter, Indira Gandhi, during his imprisonment between 1930 and 1933. Through these letters, Nehru offers a sweeping overview of world history, covering significant events, movements, and civilizations from ancient to modern times. Written in an engaging and accessible style, the book reflects Nehru’s deep understanding of global history and his belief in the interconnectedness of humanity.

Nehru’s approach to history is unique; rather than focusing solely on political events, he includes cultural, social, and economic developments, emphasizing the common threads that unite different civilizations. The book touches on a wide array of topics, from the rise and fall of empires to the impact of colonialism, the French and Russian revolutions, and the evolution of democracy and socialism. Nehru’s worldview, shaped by his anti-colonial stance and his vision for a just and progressive society, permeates the narrative, offering valuable insights into both history and contemporary issues of his time.

“Glimpses of World History” is not just a historical survey but also a philosophical meditation on the human experience, written with clarity, warmth, and intellectual depth. It provides readers with an expansive perspective on world events while revealing Nehru’s commitment to education, freedom, and the idea of a shared global heritage. This book remains an essential read for anyone interested in world history, politics, and the ideas that shaped modern India
