500			_a Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, popularly known as Veer Savarkar, remains one of the most influential freedom fighters of the country. Controversy surrounds his name. Some consider him to be one of the greatest revolutionaries in the freedom struggle of India while others think of him to be a communalist. However, there is no doubt that he was a freedom fighter, who not only fought for his country but also evoked feelings of patriotism in fellow citizens through his writings. This book is an eye-opener for it depicts the trials and tribulations of a person, who was sentenced to 50 years of hard imprisonment in the Cellular Jail of Andaman and Nicobar Islands, also called the 'Kala Pani'. From his prison cell, he sent his poems to the mainland, memorized by the prisoners who were released. This book brings to light the life and works of Savarkar, one of the most contentious political thinkers and leaders of the twentieth century.
