This book examines the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) ideology and training system. It takes a look at how the organisation formed in the mid 1920’s and its subsequent growth.
As the first significant book on its internal workings, this book is the prequel to RSS: A View to the Inside. It was for the first time in this book that readers received a glimpse into the inner workings of the RSS. Three decades later, the RSS is one of the most significant cultural organizations in India, making this book a powerful and important read.
