Paperback. Condition: New. Language: English,Lepcha. About The Book: In this segment from "A Grammar of the Rong (Lepcha) Language," the author introduces the Lepcha people and their locale, Sikim, positioned amid Tibet, Bhutan, and Nepal. Sikim's diplomatic relations with British India commenced in 1814, initially intertwined w…ith Nepal's affairs. The initial significant encounter with Nepal transpired in 1767 when the Newah Rajah sought British assistance against the Gurkhas. Regrettably, the British force led by Capt.

Notable for his military service, he participated in various campaigns, earning medals and promotions, ultimately reaching the rank of Lieutenant General. His affinity for Lepcha culture led him to study and document the Lepcha language. He published "A Grammar of the Róng (Lepcha) Language" in 1876. Known as 'Lepcha Mad,' he immersed himself in Lepcha life, residing in remote areas. General Mainwaring died in Bengal in 1893, leaving behind valuable linguistic contributions.
