The first few parts of this autobiography were serialised by EMS years ago in Unni Namboothiri magazine and Janayugam weekly. This book is a revised form of those, plus new chapters.
E. M. Sankaran Namboodiripad was born on 14, June, 1909, as the son of Parameswaran Namboodiripad and Vishnudatta Antharjanam of Elamkulam Mana in Elamkulam Village of Valluvanad Taluk in South Malabar. This covers his life from that day till 1938.
There is no wonder that this autobiography which had attracted the readers very much even when it was serialised earned a permanent place in Malayalam litera- ture. This English translation is long overdue. We are glad that at least now we could place before a wider public this great work.
We take this opportunity to thank Shri P. K. Nair who translated the book from Malayalm to English, Shri Balaram for editing the translation, Com. G. H. Rama Rao who got it printed so nicely and in record time, Com. S. Narayana who supervised the printing and all others who have helped us with suggestions and in other ways.
