Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. [The Great Game: An Account of the Disastrous Anglo-Afghan War] Rebound in blue cloth. Hardcover. Good binding and cover. Clean, unmarked pages. vi, 346 pages : frontispiece plan ; 23 cm. Scattered spotting. Manchester library bookplate. This book was written from the personal notes of the General Abbott about the British experience in the First Afghan War. Sir Charles Low wrote this work during the build up to the the Second Afghan War of 1878 - 1880, it was an attempt to understand what went wrong. "The object of bringing the experiences of Major-General Abbott before the world at the present critical conjunction of affairs is, rather, to show the serious nature of the task upon which this country has entered in the projected war with Ameer of Afghanistan, by recounting the difficulties of operations of 1838-1842. At the present time, when British troops are about to invade Afghanistan, the observations and experiences of General Abbott in his marches through the country, as jotted down daily in his journal or written to friends, will be of value as emanating from an officer who never exaggerated difficulties; moreover, by showing the difficulties against which he had to contend, measures can be taken to provide against them in the forthcoming operations." - introduction.
