In search of freedom is a journey through India, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Burma searching for the forgotten freedom fighters of India. Sagari Chhabra's travels across these regions and her encounters, reveal what it means to be oppressed and what true freedom implies. Both personal and political, historical and contemporary, the author's intrepid excursions across the region and extraordinary interviews provide a valuable account of what it was to fight for the freedom of India and yet to remain largely in oblivion.
