Synopsis
An Autobiography (1936) is an autobiographical book written by the first Prime Minister of India, Jawaharlal Nehru while he was in prison. He was concerned that his father, Motilal Nehru, who was a prominent lawyer in India, disapproved of him going to prison, and he began to wonder how he had ended up there. To sort out this question for himself, he wrote this book.
