Bringing to light the deeds of India's young revolutionaries during the freedom struggle, The Heroes of Cellular Jail tells the story of those imprisoned in the Cellular Jail of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands and the courage and perseverance they showed in the face of adversity, torture and despair.
Drawing on extracts from the memoirs of the prisoners themselves, this book highlights the extraordinary sacrifices made by these often-forgotten heroes of India's struggle for independence.
