Description
About The Book: "An Account of the Kingdom of Caubul, and its Dependencies in Persia, Tartary, and India," authored by Mountstuart Elphinstone in 1815, is a seminal two-volume work that provides a comprehensive description and analysis of the region surrounding Kabul, now part of modern Afghanistan. The text combines detailed geographic, cultural, and political insights and is notable for its thorough exploration of the Afghan nation and the Durrani Empire. Elphinstone, a British diplomat and historian, compiled this work based on his experiences and observations while on a diplomatic mission to Afghanistan. His account is considered one of the first major Western studies of Afghanistan, offering valuable historical perspectives on its people, governance, and social structures.
