Laid to Rest: The Controversy over Subhas Chandra Bose`s Death is the most comprehensive\r\n\r\ncompilation of hard evidence ever presented on the still hotly-debated demise of one of the heroes of the Indian\r\n\r\nfreedom movement. It pieces together a plethora of first-hand, eye-witness accounts of the plane crash at Taipei\r\n\r\nthat resulted in Subhas Bose breathing his last in a Japanese military hospital, his cremation and the transfer\r\n\r\nof his ashes to Japan, where they remain till date.\r\n\r\nIn a veritable tour de force, the book presents irrefutable, overwhelming testimonies from survivors of the\r\n\r\ncrash, people who were at Bose`s bedside when he passed away, attendees at the cremation and couriers of\r\n\r\nthe mortal remains to Tokyo and ultimately to its current resting place at Renkoji temple. Indian, Japanese and\r\n\r\nTaiwanese nationals unite to provide an unimpeachable and unanimous verdict. The publication decimates\r\n\r\nconspiracy theories; and questions successive Indian governments for ignoring the plaintive cry of Bose`s\r\n\r\nAustrian widow and economist daughter to apply closure to a needless and never-ending controversy.
