English Summary:

Jinnah: Creator of Pakistan was the official biography of the founder of Pakistan, Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah. It proved popular, and from the year of its first publication in 1954, it was printed many times. For a full thirty years it was the only internationally acknowledged work on Mohammad Ali Jinnah. In this book, Bolitho has collected anecdotes and assessments from a large number of Jinnahs colleagues and acquaintances and has strung them together very skillfully upon an outline of the domestic events of Jinnahs life and of the great political events in which he played so dominant a part.

"Failure is a word unknown to me, Muhammad Ali Jinnah."
