I'm looking for a book about the Gurka's.
Any suggestions?

Byron Farwell's book The Gurkhas is pretty good. Bugles and a Tiger by John Masters tells of his experiences as a young Gurkha officer in the 1930s.

I can't remember the exact names, but recently i've noticed a few quality books on the Gurkha's - don't know if their re-prints or new books, but they were up to date and had lot's of good info. Do a search on Amazone or something, they exist.

Babboon & Enfield.

The only books i could find on Amazon were books by Andrew Gurka,no books about the unit.
Are there other internet bookstores?

Go to www.chapters.ca (http://www.chapters.ca)
Look up "Gurkha".. i found three or four books. it's a Canadian bookstore, but they should ship worldwide.
