By CHARLES MASSON, Esq.
" A book of surpassing ability and extraordinary interest.
In historical notices, sketches of the chiefs, and personal ad-
venture w.th the various tribes, in general portraiture of scenes
and manners, and striking antiquarian research, we have found
spirit, life, and movement in almost every page."—Examiner.
" Mr. Masson had better opportunities than any. other
European of becoming acquainted with the real faots in the
life and character of Dost Mohammed Khan, both of which
have now become important to history."—Athenaeum.
"In a thorough exhibition of oriental life—in the variety of
fortune, singularity of incident, versatility of character, and
infinite roguery—Mr. Masson's work stands unrivalled."—
Spectator.
" A highly interesting work. Mr. Masson acted for years
as a Government agent beyond the Indus. His knowledge of
Affghanistan was well known to European Literati, and is
now proved to the world by the publication of this important
week."—John Bull.
" An admirable narrative."—Standard. . .

" A most invaluable work on Affghanistan, which will not
full to be read with peculiar interest at this moment."—
