"A History of Afghanistan" by Percy Sykes is a comprehensive and historically rich account of Afghanistan's tumultuous history. The author, a diplomat with experience in Seistan, Khurasan, Heart, and Chinese Turkistan, traveled extensively in the region and gathered valuable first-hand information, making this work one of the most authentic reconstructions of the country's history.
The first volume covers Afghanistan's history from prehistoric times to the siege of Herat in AD 1833. The second volume delves into the period from the first Afghan War in AD 1839, leading to the occupation of Kabul, to the assassination of King Nadir Shah and the accession of King Zahir Shah in AD 1933.
This two-volume set also includes appendices with various treaties and agreements, as well as an exhaustive list of authorities on the subject, making it a valuable resource for students and researchers interested in Afghan history.
