Gurkhas have been recruited into the British and Indian armies since 1814. In this absorbing study, Tony Gould examines the many legends that have grown up around these stocky soldiers whose name has become synonymous with courage, endurance, and loyalty. He details the colorful history of the Gurkhas’ relationship with the British and the Indians and their place in Nepalese history, showing that the reality of these fierce warriors is in many ways more remarkable than the myth. “A significant piece of original historical research.” — The Times Literary Supplement
