The Gurkhas (A History of Recruitment) – Kamal Raj Shingh Rathaur

The Gurkhas celebrates the fierce figure of the illustrious warrior, the Gurkha. Tracing the untrodden course of military history, Rathaur reveals the fascinating factors, operations, treaties and intrigues that shaped the making of the finest infantryman of the world.
Rarely one comes across such a book written by a Nepali author. Rathaur as Nepal’s outstanding historian on military history of Nepal has done a commendable job by revealing the hidden truths unaccepted by both Nepali and foreign scholars alike. His critical approach towards Nepal’s stand appears bold and genuine. -Connection
The Gurkhas is a well-researched work. It will be useful to scholars on Nepal as well as Indian military history. -Prof. Ramakant
