In 1905 he collected 89 inscriptions, compiled then under the title First Collection of Tibet Historical Inscriptions on Rock and Stone from West Tibet. I got this manuscripts in 1983 and thought to do further research on it. Francke written preface and dated the inscriptions in German language. Therefore, till 2000, I was unable to translate the German portion in English. However, with the German Embassy’s kind co-operation the translation work was done in the end of 2000. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis year when my publisher Sri Satguru publication was ready to publish the same. I decided to complete this work. Since the manuscript was very old and was even difficult to understand the collected inscriptions, Francke also admitted this. I feel these inscriptions have historical importance, therefore, I made all possible efforts to translate them correctly. Francke endeavoured to arrange the inscriptions in a systematic order since 800 A D to 1902. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThus this manuscript now a historical document of scientific study. Which reflects the complete history of Ladakh kings regine. The present book has many inscriptions related with Buddhism and in the interest of Ladakh history I do not feel to explain them is details. However, historical facts being considered. I prefer to give the name of this book First Collection of Tibetan Historical Inscriptions on Rock and Stone from Ladakh Himalaya. I hope this work will be useful for teachers and students who are interested on Ladakh studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContents\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAUTHOR’S PREFACE\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eINTRODUCTION\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.
