Gopal Krishna Gokhale, a great liberal and Parliamentarian, was disciple of Justice Ranade. Mahatma Gandhi regarded his as his political `guru`. Gokhale became the general secretary of the Indian National Congress and then its president at a very young age. His through grasp of the economic and administrative problems facing India was recognised both by members of the British Parliament and his countrymen. The most active member of Central Legislature, he was unofficially recognised as a leader of the Opposition. Though mild by temperament, he died not compromise on his principles. It was Gokhale who gave the call for spiritualisation of politics and founded the Servants of India Society, aimed at creating a team of dedicated political and social workers. The book depicts the life of Gokhale in the context of the India and England of his era and also the dominant ideologies of the time.
