Our guest is Tim I. Gurung who joined the British Gurkhas at 17 as his grandfathers and
uncles had done before him. His book is a fresh analysis of the Gurkhas, presenting a more nuanced view of the soldiers from Nepal who have fought with the British Army for 200 years. Tim will talk about the broad history of the Gurkhas as well as their various postwar struggles for recognition. We are delighted that Tim is joining us to offer his unique perspective. http://timigurung.com/ @TimGurung
