Jawaharlal Nehru wrote these letters to his 10-year-old daughter Indira from jail. They were published in a book form as "Letters from a Father to his Daughter." Munshi Premchand, the leading Hindi author of that time, translated them into Hindi.
In these letters, we hear the story of the prehistoric era and early history of the world, including India. The ideas and the information in these letters are insightful, and they promote the feeling of global unity and brotherhood.
Nehru hopes that those who "read these letters may gradually begin to think of this world of ours as a large family of nations."
The title of this first letter is: "The Book of Nature."
