Beskrivelse af Scinde V2
Scinde V2: Or The Unhappy Valley is a book written by Richard Francis Burton and originally published in 1851. It is a detailed account of Burton's travels in the Sindh region of present-day Pakistan, which he visited during his time as a British army officer in the mid-19th century. The book provides a vivid and sometimes harrowing description of the region, including its geography, climate, culture, and history. Burton also writes about the various conflicts and political upheavals that he witnessed during his travels, including the ongoing Anglo-Sikh Wars and the struggles between local rulers and British colonial authorities. Throughout the book, Burton displays his keen observational skills and his deep knowledge of the region, as well as his sympathy for the people he encountered. Scinde V2: Or The Unhappy Valley is a fascinating and important historical document that provides valuable insights into the complexities of colonialism and the impact of British imperialism on South Asia.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
