This book gives intimate and revealing glimpses of the second Prime Minister of India in the momentous last seven years of his life when he rose higher and higher to the very pinnacle of fame and glory, and was then abruptly and dramatically snatched away from the midst of his grieving countrymen by the cruel hand of death. The author, who as his Special Assistant and later as Joint Secretary to the Prime Minister, was closely associated with Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri from January 1959 to January 1966, was in a unique and unrivalled position to observe from the very field of action, the unfolding facets of Shastriji's personality and character during this period of steady and upward rise, as well as his handling of the various important events of this period, culminating in his ascendancy to the Prime Ministership, in the war with Pakistan in 1965, and the Tashkent Declaration that followed it.
