Suresh Chunder Bose (1870-?), Indian Author, was born to an orthodox Hindu family in Chotta Jaqulia around 1870. After completing his basic education in the village school, he enrolled in City College, Calcutta. By 1887, he quit school because of health problems. He married in 1901 which produced seven children. Bose moved to Giridih in 1905. Later on Bose moved back to Calcutta to attend Homeopathic College where he earned his degree. In 1922, Bose became the head of Lucknow’s Homeopathic Charitable Hospital. Five years later Bose published the first part of a two-part work entitled Life of Protap Chunder Mozoomdar. Part two did not come out until 1940. By 1931, Bose coauthored Growth of Trade and Industry in Modern India. He then wrote a manuscript on the life of Keshub Chunder Sen in 1946 as a submission to the Bross Foundation of Lake Forest College which eventually did not get published.
Here we have the unpublished two hundred and four-page plus manuscript entitled Keshub Chunder Sen: His Life and Ideals. Along with the typed manuscript is a folder containing correspondence between the author, colleagues and the editor of Charles Scribner Sons publisher rejecting the work for publication in the United States. There is an incomplete 1946 autobiography of Dr. Bose as well.
