Inhaltsangabe

There has been no single balanced and readable work on the history of modern Nepal. This running account of political trends and developments in Nepal during a period of about two hundred years (1769-1955) from the rise of King Prithvinarayan Shah (1769-1775), the founder of the present Shah dynasty till the end of the post Tribhuvan revolutionary era until 1955, the year in which King Tribhuvan the harbinger of democracy died, seeks to fill this gap, Starting with general introductory background about Nepal, the story takes us through the ascendence of Prithvinarayan Shah, the erstwhile ruler of Gorkha as the King of Nepal, the emergence of Rana Prime Ministers as virtual rulers, their inter family feuds and ends with the 1950-51 revolution and its aftermath.
