Excerpt from Travels in the Panjab, Afghanistan,& Turkistan, to Balk, Bokhara, and Herat: And a Visit to Great Britain and GermanyThis volume is inscribed as a proof of my heartfelt gratitude,respect, and affection to a friend to whom I am indebted for all I enjoy in the world: who, besides educating me in youth, early associated me with himself; taught me to think and to act as a man, when most of my companions were still engaged in their education in the class established by him, and who afterwards expressed his satisfaction towards me in the following words: "I feel now that the favourable opinion which I formed of you when a boy, and which subsequently led me to select you to accompany Sir Alexander Burnes on his journey, has been fully justified by the result, and it is satisfactory to me to think that I have been the means of enabling you to commence an useful and honourable career."About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
