## Description

This is one of the first (and still one of the few) comprehensive books about the Sikh religion in the English language. MacAuliffe had extensive access to manuscripts of the Sikh sacred writings (the Granth), as well as support from Sikh scholars and leaders of the time. This volume covers Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikhism. This is volume one of six; future volumes are forthcoming.

Review: An amazing spiritual journey. - Ancient history. I felt ancient reading it. Its very detailed and practically written. I found it a great and insightful read.
Review: Want to read history on Sikhs - Great at last I'm finding text books off history on Sikh soldier and our greatest teachers and their moral code to follow and learn more about from an 'other' who we as Sikhs are not afraid to learn from.
