Description
Walking With Lions: Tales From A Diplomatic Past by K. Natwar Singh offers a unique glimpse into the lives of world leaders and notable figures from the past. Spanning over three decades, Singh's diplomatic career has given him access to stories that entertain, inform, and illuminate. From his encounters with iconic leaders like Indira Gandhi and Fidel Castro, to his admiration for individuals such as C. Rajagopalachari and Nelson Mandela, Singh shares fifty episodes from his experiences in a candid and humorous tone. This collection of stories provides a rare insight into the personalities behind the headlines, revealing both their strengths and vulnerabilities. With empathy and wit, Singh recounts his interactions with artists, writers, cricketers, and film stars, as well as lesser-known figures like Godman Chandraswami and Mamaji. The result is a warm and engaging reminder that even those in positions of power are human, with all the complexities and flaws that come with it.
