## retained text



```
The Story of My Experiments With Truth by Mahatma Gandhi.
India today commemorates the anniversary of Gandhi’s birth, so there is no better time to pick up a copy of his autobiography, characterized by The New York Times in a September 1948 review as containing “all the developing phases of a great spirit.”
It shows how Gandhi — “humble, pure, and exalted” — befuddled analysts and observers with the “absolute simplicity” of his life and ideas. Buy The Story of My Experiments With Truth from your local bookstore.
