DESCRIPTION

Diary, Notes, and Correspondence of Hector Bolitho
This book is a compilation of previously unpublished and expunged portions of Jinnah: Creator of Pakistan by Hector Bolitho, the first biography of the Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, and Bolitho’s own diary and notes, and correspondence with functionaries of the Government of Pakistan and highly placed individuals in Britain, India,
This book is a compilation of previously unpublished and expunged portions of Jinnah: Creator of Pakistan by Hector Bolitho, the first biography of the Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, and Bolitho's own diary and notes, and correspondence with functionaries of the Government of Pakistan and highly placed individuals in Britain, India, and Pakistan who had known Jinnah personally. The book also includes the English and American reviews of Bolitho's celebrated and influential biography. The volume is a treasure trove of oral history concerning Pakistan's founding father. Bolitho's interviews with people who had known Jinnah personally in various capacities, and at various stages of his life, recorded within four to five years of his death, have preserved for posterity a good deal of information and historically important material that would have otherwise been lost forever. This contribution is, in fact, more valuable and has greater significance than Bolitho's published biography. These texts comprise material that the author was not allowed to include in his biography but is presented in this volume for the benefit of scholars and interested readers. In Quest of Jinnah provides a three-dimensional view of the original published version and offers fresh and authentic insights into the personality and politics of Mohammad Ali Jinnah.
