Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -'A Peep Into Toorkisthan' by Captain Rollo Burslem offers a detailed account of a journey through the rugged terrains of Toorkisth[=a]n during the summer of 1840. The narrative begins with the author and his companion, Lieutenant Sturt, setting out from Cabul with a small escort to survey the passes of the Hindoo Koosh. Their journey is marked by encounters with the local tribes, the challenges of traversing steep and treacherous passes, and the exploration of ancient sites. Burslem provides vivid descriptions of the landscape, from the fertile valleys near Cabul to the barren, snow-capped peaks of the Koh-i-baba. The travelers experience the stark contrasts in temperature and the evolving geological features of the region. Along the way, they interact with the local inhabitants, including the Huzareh and Uzbeg tribes, and observe their customs and way of life. The narrative also touches on the political climate of the time, noting the temporary peace in Affghanist[=a]n and the respect commanded by British forces. Burslem's account is enriched with anecdotes, such as the tale of the 'Dragon's Mouth,' a chalybeate spring believed to have healing powers. The journey is not without its dangers, as the travelers must remain vigilant against the threat of robbery and navigate the challenges posed by the rugged terrain. Despite these obstacles, the expedition successfully maps the region, contributing valuable knowledge about the strategic passes of the Hindoo Koosh. Burslem's work offers a glimpse into a world rarely seen by Europeans, capturing the beauty and complexity of Toorkisth[=a]n's landscapes and cultures.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 118 pp. Englisch.
