In Quest of Jinnah - Diary, Notes, and Correspondence of Hector Bolitho

This book is a compilation of previously unpublished and expunged portions of Jinnah: Creator of Pakistan by Hector Bolitho, the first biography of the Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, and Bolitho''s own diary and notes, and correspondence with functionaries of the Government of Pakistan and highly placed individuals in Britain, India, and Pakistan who had known Jinnah personally. The book also includes the English and American reviews of Bolitho''scelebrated and influential biography. The volume is a treasure trove of oral history concerning Pakistan''s founding father. Bolitho''s interviews with people who had known Jinnah personally in various capacities, and at various stages of his life, recorded within four to five years of his death, have preserved forposterity a good deal of information and historically important material that would have otherwise been lost forever. This contribution is, in fact, more valuable and has greater significance than Bolitho''s published biography. T
