The Story of My Experiments with Truth is the autobiography of Mohandas K. Gandhi, covering his life from early childhood through to 1921.
It was written in weekly installments and published in his journal Navjivan from 1925 to 1929. Its English translation also appeared in installments in his other journal Young India.
It was initiated at the insistence of Swami Anand
and other close co-workers of Gandhi, who encouraged him to explain the
background of his public campaigns. In 1998, the book was designated as one of
the "100 Best Spiritual Books of the 20th Century" by a committee of
global spiritual and religious authorities.
Starting with his birth and parentage, Gandhi has given reminiscences of childhood, child marriage, relation with his wife and parents, experiences at the school, his study tour to London, efforts to be like the English gentleman, experiments in dietetics, his going to South Africa, his experiences of colour prejudice, his quest for dharma, social work in Africa, return to India, his slow and steady work for political awakening and social activities.
The book ends abruptly after a discussion of the Nagpur session of the Congress in 1915.
