8vo. Original red cloth, spine lettered and ruled in gilt, front cover lettered and ruled in black, top edge gilt; pp. x, 734, 8 (publisher's catalogue), numerous mostly folding maps in two or more colours, plates after photographs and drawings (including several large panoramas); cloth a little darkened and marked, browning to endpapers as usual, pp. 239/40 with tiny paper flaw, affecting four letters, pp. 353/4 with repaired marginal tear, light spotting to and offsetting from maps; otherwise a very good copy of a rare and important work.

First edition. A joint effort of several leading military figures, including Lord Roberts of Kandahar, at creating a coherent narrative of the scope of the Second Afghan War. The military strategist and soldier MacGregor was the ideal leader of this enterprise. Born in India in 1840 and commissioned in the Indian army in October 1856, he served during the Indian Mutiny. Many campaigns followed and in 1878 Macgregor 'was placed on special duty in charge of the Khyber line of communications at the beginning of the Second Anglo-Afghan War …, accompanying General Maude's expedition against the Zakha Khel Afridis in the Bazar valley as chief of staff. Later he was appointed chief of staff to Sir Samuel Browne, with whom he served during the advance from Jalalabad to Gandamak. After the conclusion of the treaty he made arrangements for the withdrawal of the Peshawar valley field force. He was created a CIE in January 1878 and was made a CB for the Afghan campaign' (ODNB). After the war he took command of the intelligence department of India, and wrote the privately printed book The Defence of India: a Strategical Study.

Amazing Jewelry Travel Case
I bought this jewelry case for traveling on a cruise and I absolutely LOVE IT! When I purchased it I didn’t know if it would actually fit all the jewelry I wanted to bring but this box definitely impressed me! It fit all my regular jewelry plus more bc you know us woman love to coordinate with our outfits lol the case/box is sturdy! It didn’t break or even dent throughout my travels. It comes with different pieces to help organize and separate jewelry but it is removable if needed which I had to do bc one of my necklaces is really big. The case fit perfectly in my carry on luggage and didn’t take up much room at all which helped me a lot. I got the black case and I just love how simple and sleek it looks. This is definitely a must have if you need to travel with jewelry and are concerned about things getting damaged, this case keeps them safe and it’s definitely a great value for your money!

Gorgeous Tiffany-Blue & Perfect for Travel
I absolutely adore this little jewelry case. I don’t have a huge jewelry collection, so the size is perfect for me. It keeps everything organized without being bulky. The zipper feels very sturdy and smooth — not flimsy at all. And for anyone who loves Tiffany’s blue… the color is almost an exact match. I can set it next to my Tiffany box and it’s nearly identical. It’s such a pretty, luxe-looking shade. Highly recommend.

Convenient
This is great to take with you if you’re going out of town. It’s easier to keep track of your jewelry. It doesn’t take up much room, but holds several rings earrings and three necklaces.
