Before hashtags, before marches filled with megaphones, there was one man in a loincloth—walking hundreds of miles to make salt. Gandhi: Salt, Soul, and the End of Empire isn’t your textbook history. It’s the real, raw breakdown of how a soft-spoken lawyer became the living symbol of resistance—not through war, but through will.
