A Sinhala-language study of the great Kandyan uprising against British rule, by the historian Thennakoon Wimalananda. The whole text is in Sinhala — there is no English in it — so this is a book for readers who are comfortable in the language.
The work first appeared in instalments, published in parts over time rather than as a single volume. It is issued here as one complete book, bringing the material together under a single cover.
Wimalananda wrote on the history of the Kandyan kingdom and the British period for a Sinhala readership, and this title belongs to that body of work. It is published by M. D. Gunasena & Co., a Colombo publishing house with a long association with Sinhala historical writing.
Suited to readers of Sri Lankan history working in Sinhala, to students of the colonial period, and to anyone building a Sinhala-language history shelf abroad.
