Description

Field Marshall Sam Manekshaw, former Chief of Staff of the Indian Army once said, “If a man says he is not afraid of dying, he is either lying or is a Gurkha.” There is no body of fighters more well known—or more feared—in the British Army than the Brigade of Gurkhas. Formed in June 1815, these fierce soldiers are still world-renowned for their courage, finesse, and their signature weapon, the Khukuri. In their two-hundred year history, they have won major victories, countless medals for bravery, and the hearts of the British people.   This book, written by Major General J C Lawrence CBE, with a foreword by HRH The Prince of Wales, is the complete visual history of the regiment, its brave soldiers, and the romanticism imbued by tales told over centuries. With over two hundred magnificent photos, The Gurkhas will delight historians and military enthusiasts alike.
