Synopsis The purpose of writing this book is to explore, once again, answers to questions that have haunted our mind for years; like; Who divided India? Was Jinnah alone responsible for partition? Whether the Congress Party and its leaders like Gandhiji and Jawaharlal Nehru too were responsible in some measure? Finally, as the name of the book suggests, it is an attempt by the author to unravel the enigma called Jinnah. To a discerning reader, the book serves as a window not just to the life of Jinnah, but also importantly to the most significant epoch in the pre-independence history of India (1904-1947) that changed the whole complexion of the Indian subcontinent. The book is a brave attempt to put the personality of Barrister Jinnah in proper perspective based on historical evidence so diligently gathered by Mr. Sheshrao Chavan. In fact, by reading this book, readers can, by and large, acquaint themselves with the story of India's Independence struggle from the British. The book spurs the reader to know more about the history of the tumultuous period leading to the partition of India.
