Gurkhas: 200 Years Of Service To The Crown | Forces TV

Probably the best known, and to their adversaries the most feared, body of fighting men in the British Army, Gurkhas were first recruited to serve the British Crown 200 years ago in 1815 and for all those years their signature weapon has remained the Kukri. In that time, these young men, from the Nepalese hills, have fought in all the major wars where the British Army has been deployed. This book, written by Major General J C Lawrence CBE, is the complete visual history of Britain's Gurkhas and the mystique that surrounds them.
