Item description from seller

First edition, small folio (11" x 8¼"), pp. [10, xxxiii, [5], 530; lexicon in double column; a fine copy in original pictorial wrappers. "Newari, a Tibeto-Burman language, is the mother tongue of the Newars, the earliest settlers of the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal. The Newars have long occupied a culturally important place among the Himalayan peoples. Over the centuries they have developed a complex and advanced culture which contains elements taken from both the great Sanskrit traditions of India to the South and the traditions of Tibet and China in the North. In Nepal's literary and historiographic traditions, Newari has a prominent place, since it is the oldest written language of Nepal, and for several centuries, from the end of the 14 century, was the principal Nepalese language to be used in court records, inscriptions and historical documents" (mandalabookpoint[.]com).
