The Khukri Braves: The Illustrated History of the Gorkhas

 
Jyoti Thapa Mani (Author)
Synopsis

Fearless, fierce, and gritty soldiers from India and Nepal, the Gorkhas are celebrated worldwide for their bravery. A significant part: first of the British army, and then Indian army, the Gorkhas have shown by their exemplary brave acts during the past 200 years to become what they are today known for. The Khukri Braves presents the rich history, culture and traditions of this gallant community in all its vibrancy. Painstakingly researched, the book puts together some of the stirring facts and anecdotes that have never come to light before. With a veritable bonanza of photographs, the book thus unfolds: both through words and images, a fascinating story of the triumphs and travails of the Gorkha community.
