How does sangat feel about Mcleod's writings because towards the end of his life I remember hearing negative things about what he had written about Khalsa and Sikhi ? I'm guessing this translation is earlier good works ?

are there translations of the last two ? I know Ganda Singh was a historian my Dad and Dadaji used to rate highly ,Bhai Vir Singh ji I have located translation pdfs and have originals at home. Is Pandit Narain Singh also known as Narain Das on some older volumes I seem to recognise that name?

[savinderpalsingh]

no , only punjabi AFAIK

yes yes

why give kids english translations? let them get used to gurmukhi and let them get it hardwired in brain.

jud pias laggi hai, apna farz gian/itihaas piloni hai until they catch up Gurmukhi reading levels to understand detailed tracts I wanted to help them keep wanting more . Of course I would be remiss to not get them to that level of gurmaukhi (my personal dream would be to see all four go through Gurcharani Lagana)
