Description

About The Book: T. W. E. Holdsworth's "Campaign of the Indus" is a compilation of letters that provide a detailed account of Officer Holdsworth's experiences in Afghanistan during the First Anglo-Afghan War of 1839-1842. The letters recount significant events during the campaign, including the remarkable feat of an English army crossing Central Asia, a region that had not been traversed by European troops since Alexander the Great's victorious march from the Hellespont to the Jaxartes and Indus. Officer Holdsworth decided to publish the letters, which were suggested by his friends, due to the historical significance of the campaign.
