Gandhi brought the British Empire to its knees. He liberated India with protest, prayer and fasting - but also photography. This is the unknown history of Gandhi's life in front of the lens, from an 18-year-old dandy in London, through a fruitful rapport with Life magazine photographer Margaret Bourke-White , to Cartier- Bresson haunting images of the millions that mourned at the funeral of the Father of the Nation.
