  1. Prachi –

    Pretty good, but I found the writing to be pretty slow and boring. It was hard to stay engaged.

  2. Ankush Kumar Singh –

    The translation is good, and the content is valuable. However, it could have benefited from more contextualization. Still, a worthwhile read.

  3. Subhayan Chowdhury –

    I struggled to get through this. The subject matter is interesting, but the prose is heavy. Only for dedicated readers.

  4. Komal Jain –

    Excellent resource for understanding Indian history. The editors’ notes are particularly helpful. Some parts were difficult to follow, but overall great.

  5. Prerna Sharma –

    It was alright, I expected more stories about the peasant and felt it could be better.

  6. Prajwal Narendra Akhade –

    An important historical document! It provides a crucial understanding of peasant life and politics in India. Highly recommended.

  7. Dev Kumar Gupta –

    Gave a unique perspective, though very politically charged. Hard to verify claims, but still an interesting read.

  8. Ayush Raaj –

    A well-researched and insightful book. Sheds light on a crucial period in Indian history. Highly recommend.

  9. Syed Zain Haider Zaidi –

    Insightful but a bit dry. The editors did a good job translating, but the original text feels academic. Worth reading for serious scholars.

  10. Devvrat Gholap –

    A must-read for anyone interested in Indian history and social movements. A deep dive into the peasant’s world.

  11. Aaditya Sanjay Loharkar –

    A powerful and moving account. Sahajanand’s passion shines through. It’s a bit challenging, but ultimately rewarding.

  12. Rupanjan Das –

    It’s difficult to stay focused on this, but appreciate getting the perspective of the farmers and their struggles.

  13. Pratyush Singh Chauhan –

    An eye-opening account of peasant life and struggles. A bit dense but important information. I really learned a lot.

  14. Preeti Agarwal –

    Some chapters were more engaging than others. It’s a valuable resource, but not a light read.

  15. Ritik Goyal –

    A fascinating look at peasant movements in India. Sahajanand’s perspective is invaluable, though the writing style can be dense at times.
