'Elphinstone's guidance in war and administration in peace furnished models of penetration, bravery, intelligence and wisdom.' -- William Jerdan


'Elphinstone's guidance in war and administration in peace furnished models of penetration, bravery, intelligence and wisdom.' * William Jerdan * 'These fourteen essays explore the methodology and influence of one of the great works of British Indian scholarship. Elphinstone's 'Account of the Kingdom of Caubul' became the 'Bible' of Afghanistan studies and established an enduring framework for the whole corpus of British topographical writing about South Asia.' -- John Keay
