I have a 2 week vacation and I want to read a biography of Quaid Azam. Can anybody suggest an English Biography on Quaid Azam?Please tell me. Thanks in advance.
Renowned American scholar Professor Stanley Wolpert has writing a comprehensive biography of Quaid-e-Azam.
A quote from Professor Stanley Wolpert:-
** 'Few individuals significantly alter the course of history.
Fewer still modify the map of the world.
Hardly anyone can be credited with creating a nation-state.
Mohammad Ali Jinnah did all three.' **
- Stanley Wolpert, professor of history, University of California, Los Angeles, and author of Jinnah of Pakistan and Nehru: A Tryst with Destiny.
Nice one Abdali :k:
While you read those books- Make sure to question yourself what is write and wrong. Make sure to scan every single word of it from your own perspective. [which i hope is the correct one]
I wont say anything more then that - or i will get ban in not time *grin
Pakistani Tiger, Very Nice Thread. Thanks for the reply.
Abdali, I'm sorry for the late reply. I was out of town. I have already reserved a copy of that book from the public library. Thanks for the suggestion.
Nia Bajo, let me read the book first.:)
Wolpert has done a fine job, but i must say this, it is extremely detailed, way to detailed for someone who just wants a brief history. The book goes into the details of the Split, the leadership styles, not to mention absolutely all details about the Quaids life. It is a great book, but heavy on the details. Each page screams out too much information, and if you arent well versed in the history it can be overwhelming. So take is slow and easy with that book. Expect to finish it of in a month or 2 or maybe more.
