The Life and Tales of the Bagrationi (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798330534418)

This text provides a genealogical account of the Bagratid dynasty, starting from biblical Adam and tracing through significant figures to King David and his descendants. It describes how the Bagratids emerged as rulers in Kartli after the decline of the Gorgasali kings, detailing the contributions of four brothers-Guaram, Sahak, Asam, and Varazvard-who played pivotal roles in the establishment of their lineage and governance in various regions, including Kartli and Kakheti. The narrative highlights the influence of the church and key figures like Catholicos Samuel in supporting the Bagratids' rise to power.
