Synopsis
1977, British hardcover edition, Macdonald and Jane's Publishers, London, U.K. 393 pages. Black and white photo galleries. 5-page bibliography. Charles Miller previously, wrote one of the great history adventures of all time. His The Lunatic Express describes the building of the Ugandan Railway and it is a pip of a book, fascinating, and at times very, very funny. Here, the author distinguishes himself with an in-depth account that would ultimately lead to the British rule of Peshawar, the Khyber Pass, and all Eastern Afghanistan. Here is a complicated story of the British nation abroad and an absorbing story of Mountstuart Elphinstone, the first Englishman to visit this place in 1809, making his trek in some glory with red-coated soldiers and a caravan of 600 camels. History as it ought to be written.
