Jinnah of Pakistan

An important contribution to the study of one of the most significant episodes of modern history-the partition of India.

Scholarly, insightful, understanding and brilliant. Scholarship and the art of portrayal merge so masterfully in the work that Jinnahs personality becomes truly alive. Wolperts biography of Jinnah is xcellently written...comprehensive in its sweep. The first scholarly biography of one of the most important political figures of the modern world. Beautifully written, insightful, and dispassionate, it brings to life this complex, brilliant, and ambitious leader.

Wolperts well-researched biography...will... revive the debate... on the measure of Jinnahs foresight.
