The book covers the entire period of Nepal’s history, from the Gorkha unification of the country in the late eighteenth century to the end of the Shah monarchy in 2008, with the creation of a Federal Democratic Republic. Each chapter takes a particular historical episode and, with the aid of previously unexploited archives, digs deep beneath the surface to reveal the hidden underlying dynamics, leaving us to revise our vision of events that we wrongly thought we had previously understood. General Sir Sam Cowan has a near-obsessive commitment to getting to the truth of any situation, and he takes no prisoners. Presenting irrefutable evidence at every step, and delivering it in the clear narrative style of a true storyteller who knows how to keep his audience spellbound, the author lays bare the ambitions of Nepal’s rulers with the same ruthless clarity that he brings to bear on the machinations of other interested nations — Great Britain, India, China and the United States.
