Book Description
What were you to me? More than you’ll ever know! In life you were the man for all seasons, From whom I sought the guiding light of reason, The dearest friend that never needed my amends, The older brother who guided me like no other, You who opened a door through which I walked, But never alone, for you were on the other side, too. Yes, you were more to me than you’ll ever know, Yes, you are more to me than you’ll ever know. And it’s thanks to you that now I grow into a person whose light you showed, A light, a torch to you for my life and more. For all you’ve given me – for what little I gave you in return.

The Gurkhas
Author: Chris Bellamy
Publisher: John Murray
ISBN: 1848545150
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 505
Book Description
The Gurkhas have fought on behalf of Britain and India for nearly two hundred years. As brave as they are resilient, resourceful and cunning, they have earned a reputation as devastating fighters, and their unswerving loyalty to the Crown has always inspired affection in the British people. There are also now up to 40,000 Gurkhas in the million-strong army of modern India. But who are the Gurkhas? How much of the myth that surrounds them is true? Award-winning historian Chris Bellamy uncovers the Gurkhas' origins in the Hills of Nepal, the extraordinary circumstances in which the British decided to recruit them and their rapid emergence as elite troops of the East India Company, the British Raj and the British Empire. Their special aptitude meant they were used as the first British 'Special Forces'. Bellamy looks at the wars the Gurkhas have fought this century, from the two world wars through the Falklands to Iraq and Afghanistan and examines their remarkable status now, when each year 11,000 hopefuls apply for just over 170 places in the British Army Gurkhas. Extraordinarily compelling, this book brings the history of the Gurkhas, and the battles they have fought, right up to date, and explores their future.
