Journey To The North Of India V2 is a travelogue written by Arthur Conolly, first published in 1838. The book describes Conolly's overland journey from England through Russia, Persia, and Afghanistan to reach the northern regions of India. Conolly's journey was a challenging and dangerous one, as he encountered harsh weather conditions, hostile terrain, and various political conflicts along the way. He also had to navigate through different cultures and customs, which he describes in detail in the book. The second volume of the book covers Conolly's travels through Persia and Afghanistan, where he encountered various rulers and officials, including the infamous Emir of Bukhara, who was known for his cruelty and oppression. Conolly also witnessed the ongoing conflict between the British and the Afghans, which would eventually lead to the First Anglo-Afghan War. Throughout the book, Conolly provides vivid descriptions of the landscapes, people, and cultures he encountered, as well as his own personal reflections on his experiences. The book is a fascinating account of a journey undertaken during a time of great political upheaval and cultural exchange, and provides valuable insights into the history and geography of the regions Conolly traveled through.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
