Opis

This work is the first biography of Khizr Tiwana, the Unionist Premier of the Punjab during the climacteric period 1942-1947. Khizr's attachment to the ideals of cross-communal political cooperation and decentralisation of power are likely to become of increasing interest in a critical reappraisal of the Partition era.
