Mahatma Gandhi – as a writer of simple, easy, graceful, idiomatic, forceful and succinct prose he has no equals. Gandhiji’s prose style attained the acme of perfection in The Story of My Experiments with Truth which is unrivalled for transparent sincerity of heart and boldness of convictions. In order to express his individual convictions about Truth and Ahimsa and his experiments with Truth Gandhiji envolved an individual style which bears the stamp of his personality. Before writing his autobiography The Story of My Experiments with Truth Mahatma Gandhi had written numerous articles for the Indian Opinion, Navjivan, and Young India. He had also written The History of Satyagrah in South Africa, Key to Health, a large number of letters and pamphlets. Thus, before writing his autobiography he was well equipped with a fine style.
