- Summary
- For various reasons, Iskander Mirza's memoirs have not been published in a book form. After more than half a century, they are being published in their totality. The memoirs lay open the facts for the people of Pakistan, historians and academics to judge the man who was a trusted lieutenant of Quaid-e-Azam and, while in the Indian Political Service, secretly worked with Jinnah (who fully recognized the invaluable potential in the young Deputy Commissioner of Peshawar) towards the most challenging task of achieving Pakistan from the British.
- Political biography of Iskandar Mirza, 1899-1969, first president of Pakistan.
