The First Afghan War

"The First Afghan War" by Mowbray Morris as a writer, Morris was often charged with learning and writing about history, including the Afghan War. The First Anglo-Afghan War was fought between the British Empire and the Emirate of Kabul from 1838 to 1842. The British initially successfully invaded the country taking sides in a succession dispute between emir Dost Mohammad and former emir Shah Shujah, whom they reinstalled upon occupying Kabul in August 1839. Though it marks an important part of Europe's history in the Middle-East, it often goes over-looked, until this book's release.
