JINNAH of pakistan by stanley wolpert
wow , this biography of Jinnah is much better then the one written by Hector Bolitho. It is detailed and very well researched. I also felt that the writer had a very deep knowledge about the politics in British India, and this made the book a very precise document on political history of
subcontinent under British rule and the subsequent independence of Pakistan and india. A must read for every Pakistani.
