Extraordinary audiobook about a much discoursed world changing event
As an Indian I have grown up with the history of Indian Independence gleaned from many sources (grandparents, family, books, documentaries) but this beautifully conceived and executed audiobook puts everything succinctly and in order of historical events. The narrators tell the compelling story calmly while giving the historical background and talking about the personalities involved. For me, it brought together all the various strands of knowledge gathered over time …

Captivating and concise history of independence
I really enjoyed this beautifully narrated history of India's independence. Being somewhat ignorant to the wider context and even some of the key events during the struggles, it helped me put things into a chronology and made me want to delve further back into the history of the region, as the narration provided a clear and highly engaging account of events.
Would highly recommend!

Excellent articulation of the history of Independence
Being a 10 years old British Indian in London, I have learnt a lot by simply listening to this audio book. Ayush narration was excellent and made my listening very interesting. I definitely recommend my age group to listen to this audio book and learn the history of Indian independence in a quick & easy way. My dad also told me that this audio book has got great summary for anyone to learn the history of Indian independence.

Gem of an audiobook. Simply brilliant!
This was such a great find. Who knew that this little gem of Indian history existed in audio form? Absolutely loved it!! It is so hard to find a history audio book that can hold your attention span from beginning to end, yet the two voices manage to do exactly that. The script is crisp, clear and concise and the narration is excellent. This perfectly formed audio book delves into the details of Indian history and gives a well rounded understanding of it in just over an hour. It was certainly an hour well spent for me! Thoroughly enjoyed it. Highly recommend.
