IN ASKING why Gandhi may have understated the Event in his Autobiography, disregarding or having forgotten the fact that he had himself announced it to the six main newspapers in India as newsworthy and as deeply representative of his impending leadership, we face the general questions as to when in Gandhi's life the Autobiography was written; why it was written at that time; what sense it made in the context of Gandhi's previous life; what community it was written for; and what sense such communication made in the history of that community.
