Title: A tale of two revolts
Description: Two wars, seemingly fought for very different reasons, occurred at opposite ends of the globe in the middle of the nineteenth century. But they were both fought in a world still dominate by Great Britain, and the battle cry in both conflicts was freedom. Gandhi raises new questions about these wars that changed the world.
