GURKHA ​RESEARCH


material used in writing books about Gurkhas

Whilst not exhaustive, some of the books used as references in writing the commemorative Gurkha history are listed below.  Where available, I have also provided links to Amazon or the Gurkha Museum so that readers can view or order books if required (just click the title). The books in red provide an excellent starting point for people wishing to find out more about Gurkhas.
