Synopsis
Frontier and Overseas Expeditions from India, Baluchistan and the First Afghan War is an official, detailed history of frontier campaigns and governance on the western border of British India. This volume presents a comprehensive survey of Baluchistan, its tribes, and the early Afghan conflict, through a sequence of chapters that blend military action with administration and diplomacy.
Across the Baluchistan chapters, the book traces occupation, treaties, tribal dynamics, and policing methods, along with the development of frontier agencies and key campaigns. It also covers Makran, Zhob, Shirani and Zhob affairs, and the rise and fall of local leaders, with careful notes on security measures and political outcomes. The First Afghan War portion provides context on the country, the Burnes mission, and the subsequent military operations, with maps, appendices, and a chronological table of events to situate movements and decisions.
