2020BIBHB0210198192020. Hardcover. New. About the Book :- Through this rare work the author has tried to portray the unknown classic of geography surveying and adventure. He worked for the British government in India as a soldier and surveyor in fact one of the primary geographers who helped create the modern borders of Pakistan and Afghanistan. His book-- which discusses more than a decade of exploration in Afghanistan in and around 1890-- is a fascinating account of early European contact with Afghanistan and is pertinent for today. Surprisingly little has changed: jihads rough frontier warfare civil unrest foreign intervention--today the ugly American--and incredible hardship in one of the toughest places on this planet--the frontier of Pakistan and Afghanistan. At the time the British Empire forces in India wanted to create a definite border between their India and the wilds of Afghanistan--partly because of their fear of Russian incursions into the region. It contains 22 illustrations and a map. The book is good for common readers.

A cordial correspondence regarding the business of the Society Holdich's close association with which is not noted in his entry in the Oxford DNB. On 21 February 1917 Holdich writes to 'accept the honour of appointment to the office of Vice President of the Society of Arts'. On 7 November 1914 of his 'opening address to the Society' he writes: 'I am not particularly well satisfied with it - . I have not been able to keep clear of technical matter altogether but I have done my best to be intelligible.' A letter of 23 February 1917 proposes the awarding of an Albert Medal to 'Wilbur Wright the real original flying man'. On 13 July 1914 he writes: 'The enclosed will amuse you! I am charmed to think that I should be one of the "only artists known in India". What a benighted country it is!' And on 21 October 1914 regarding an address by Wood: 'I have suggested one or two verbal ammendments for your consideration because I do not think that we are justified in taking anything but the most confident view of our winning through this war. I believe that all associations similar to ours will "maintain their labours" and carry on as usual. I do not see why they should not - nothing has happened yet so far as our Society is concerned which we can fairly call "passing through tribulation" '. A letter of 23 June 1915 is accompanied by a pamphlet relating to the 'Professional Classes War Relief Council' and one of 18 February 1918 by a letter to Holdich from E. Merry Acting Secretary The Decimal Association Between 1914 and 1919. All from 41 Courtfield Road, London SW7. unknown
