Reading the biography of Tulsidas was on my list since I read Ramcharitmanas and since I visited his ashram at Tulsi ghat in Varanasi. There even a Tulsi Akhada right behind that which is attributed to him. Little did I realize that I had the biography in my library, picked up during one of my Lucknow trips.
