Journeying through Indian History
In her book, The
Women Who Ruled India, Archana Garodia Gupta journeys through India’s historical landscape to
restore from obscurity
several lesser-known but immensely noteworthy women who impacted
Indian history. The women in this book, some well known and some
lesser-known, are fascinating icons from preindependence India who left
an indelible mark in history.
Interestingly,
the author refrains from glorifying these women and portrays them as
they lived, strong yet flawed and very human; and extraordinary in
all that they dreamed, experienced and achieved. In this simple yet
absorbing narrative, we glimpse strong feminists at a time when “feminism”
was an unborn concept.
Archana is a
multi-faceted lady of diverse interests and talents who has also
authored the best selling “ A History of India for Children”.Awarded the
title “Champion of Champions” from BBC, she serves on the expert panel
of the Television show, “Kaun Banega Crorepati”.
