EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white print depicts the 'Map of the Tirah Campaign' from the late 19th century, specifically from around 1900. The Tirah expedition was a significant military campaign in the Indian frontier region, taking place from September 1897 to April 1898. The campaign was conducted in the Tirah area, which is a mountainous region located in what is now known as Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province in Pakistan. The map itself is a detailed representation of the area, highlighting various towns and cities, rivers, forts, mountains, and mountain passes. Notable features include the Afghan frontier, Surghar Range, Kuram River, Bazar Valley, and the Bara and Mastura Valleys. The map serves as an intriguing snapshot of the geography and borders of the region during a time of imperial expansion and conflict. This print was originally published in 'Cassell's History of England, Vol. IX' by Cassell and Company, Limited, a renowned publishing house based in London, Paris, New York, and Melbourne. The map provides a fascinating glimpse into the geopolitical landscape of the region during the British Empire's rule in India, or Hindoostan, as it was then known. The map's intricate details and historical significance make it an essential addition to any collection focused on imperialism, geography, or military history. Its monochromatic aesthetic adds to its timeless appeal, transporting us back to a bygone era of exploration and conquest.
