GANDHI: A MANGA BIOGRAPHY GN
Through his quietly powerful leadership and influential use of nonviolent resistance in India’s struggle against the British Raj, Mahatma Gandhi became one of the most revered figures of the modern era. While history has recorded Gandhi’s words and deeds, the man himself has been eclipsed by maxims of virtuosity that seem to have little resonance in our everyday lives. In Gandhi, Kazuki Ebine combines a gripping narrative with stunning illustrations to share Gandhi’s inspiring and deeply human story with a whole new generation of readers.

At least one significant content error so far. Thoreau was not a significant influence in the development of Gandhi’s thought … as Gandhi himself insisted in his writings … Gandhi specifically named Tolstoy, Ruskin and the Hindu mystic Raychandbhai as his three main influences. The lettering needs to be re-edited as well.
With that said, I’m excited to see this GN on the shelves. I’m always looking for graphic adaptations of historical content to incorporate in the classroom, and this will fit the bill perfectly.
