Michaels, Bajracharya, Gutschow: Nepalika-Bhupa-Vamsavali: History of the Kings of Nepal – A Buddhist Chronicle

The popular 19th century Nepali chronicle (Vamsavali) with the title Nepalika-Bhupa-Vamsavali: History of the Kings of Nepal – A Buddhist Chronicle has been newly edited and translated into English by Dr. Manik Bajracharya, Prof. Axel Michaels, and Prof. Niels Gutschow. The three-volume work was published by Himal Books.


The books unlock the secrets of Nepali history and was first translated by Daniel Wright in 1877 and while the ‘Wright Chronicle’ became the most readily available English translation of its time, it was incomplete and incorrect in many areas.
