There are three web pages on Tulsi, two of them in English. You will
find
them at http://www.cs.colostate.edu/~malaiya/hindipoets.html.

Tulsidas is one of the most quoted poets of India. His
Ram-charita-Manasa
(Ramayana) is often recited from beginning to end, many have parts of
it memorised.

To see what Gandhi said about Tulsidas's Ramayana see:

There is an article on the recent issue of Vishwa-Viveka on Tulsidas,
it is in Hindi.
