Journey to the North of India - Overland from England, through Russia, Persia, and Affghaunistaun

Published in 1834, as Britain and Russia sought supremacy in Central Asia, this two-volume work sheds light on the Great Game, a coinage credited to British officer Arthur Conolly (1807–42). He describes here the various Asiatic tribes he encountered, as well as the many dangers he had to avoid.
