This biography records the life of an unusual man, C.F. Andrews, who came to India as an Anglican priest in 1904 and was one of those very rare personalities who were respected both with Indian nationalist circles and official British ones. Apart from analysing Andrews's role in pre-Independence India and his fight against oppression in Africa and elsewhere, this biography brings to life the very human facets of Andrews's extraordinary personality - a man abounding
in love for all humanity - and reveals his intense inner ordeal and self-doubt. Based on archival sources including Andrews's voluminous correspondence, this biography seeks to study Andrews's life and work closely and view them in proper perspective.
