along with his accomplishments and might, are they not written
on 1 Kings 16:5-7
The closing formula names “the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel”, a source the author used and did not preserve. Verse 7 adds a second charge, that Baasha kept the sin of Jeroboam and also “because Baasha had struck down the house of Jeroboam”.
The record, by era
The Puritans and the Awakening1 voice
Now the rest of the acts of Baasha, and what he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel? As those of Jeroboam and Nadab were, 1Ki 14:19.

The “might” of Baasha is sufficiently indicated by those successes which drove Asa to call Ben-hadad to his aid. 1Ki 15:17-21.
