The article characterizes the XVIII century Georgian historical work “The reign of Erekle the Second” and represents the translation of excerpts from it. The information about Daghestan and Daghestanians, which is given in the article, is especially interesting. The translated excerpts, mainly, give information about influential Daghestan personalities leading military campaigns to the South Caucasus in 1744-1786. These data allow reconstruction of some episodes from the military-political history of the XVIII century Daghestan. They are also of great interest for the study of the relationship between Daghestan and Georgia in that period.
