A husband and wife team, Indian activists Jagannathan and Krishnammal, are the subject of this stirring oral biography. Spanning their role in Gandhi's struggle against the British in the 1940s, to their current struggle against the environmentally destructive prawn farming financed by the World Bank, this is the story of how two individuals have put their lives on the line repeatedly through nonviolent action, to obtain land for the landless, to abolish untouchability, and to defend their land against the devastation wrought by multinational corporations.
