An epic history of the first Afghan War, of the 1830s and 1840s, from the bestselling author of "White Mughals" and "In Xanadu". An entire British army was wiped out by a group of poorly equipped tribesmen. Based on a range of previously undiscovered sources, including new material in Russian, Urdu and Persian, and contemporary Afghan accounts such as the autobiography of Shah Shuja himself. Two centuries apart, there are parallels with the current crisis in Afghanistan.
