INDIAN FREEDOM FIGHTERS IN LONDON (1905-1910)

This illustrated book explores an almost forgotten episode in the history of India's struggle to become independent freed from being part of the British Empire. The events described in it took place largely in London between 1905 and 1910. They were centred on India House a Victorian mansion in Highgate a suburb of London and were orchestrated by Shyamji Krishnavarma Vinayak Damodar Savarkar and other Indian freedom fighters. Adam Yamey's volume discusses a brief but exciting part of the long fight to make India a sovereign nation several years before Mahatma Gandhi became significantly involved in it. The author also reveals the story behind the modern replica of the former India House which has been constructed in Kutch a part of western India.
