Indian Naval Revolt of 1946

Percy S Gourgey

Indian Naval Revolt of 1946 - Hyderabad Orient Longman Limited 1996 - ix,66 p. PB 21.5x14 cm.

Here is an authentic account of a brief, momentous event that preceded India’s Independence fifty years ago. This is a personal account by the author, a junior naval officer at the time, caught by chance at the centre of the disturbances in Bombay, and it indicates their far reaching implications - the historic trials in New Delhi, when Nehru was one of the defence lawyers of the Indian National Army, Gandhi’s philosophy of non-violence and the significance of India becoming the first Republic of Commonwealth.
