Gurkhas do not write; no Gurkha has ever written a single word neither about themselves nor why they fight for their friends. Colonel GL Rai-Zimmdar is the first person to break ranks and begin writing. While doing so, he is able to draw heavily from their rich oral traditions and obviously none but a true Gurkha could be most eminently suited to do so.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43832769216651,"sku":"9781495479335","price":8.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0626\/5100\/7115\/files\/img_1317783d-c76b-4d91-983e-9d008eaebad8.jpg?v=1755622472","url":"https:\/\/cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/products\/rumer-godden-and-black-narcissus-historical-background-of-black-narcissus-9781495479335","provider":"CA Corrections Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
