Ashoka the Great, the ruler of ancient India's largest kingdom, took the
path of peace, tolerance, non-violence and compassion after a fierce
battle in Kalinga. He now addressed his subjects as a father would his
children, and erected pillars that spread his thoughts throughout the
land in the people's own language. He put their welfare above all else
and worked towards that for the rest of his life. One of the most
well-known symbols from India's history, the Ashoka chakra, now adorns
India's national flag, and the lion capital from his pillars is our
national emblem. In this lively, engrossing account of Ashoka's life and
the times, Subhadra Sen Gupta deftly brings him alive again from behind
the swirling mists of time.
