The assimilation of the Gorkhas in the larger Assamese society is as old as nearly two hundred years ago. Common borders, shared history, language and culture among many factors were instrumental in the migration history. The Gorkha recruitment in Indian army from 1815 was another turning point in Assam military history especially during the wake of the Burmese invasion. Meeting between history and culture ,the book offers valuable insights into the lived experiences of the Nepali migrants in Assam. There are vivid sketches of the interplay of folktales, folksongs, parables etc. that have slowly merged into a new generation of songs. The author also writes with his feelings and sensitivity about lesser known facts about the Gorkhas which are well articulated in the book. Definitely the book offers the readers a ready history into the integration of the Gorkhas into Assam.
