General Gilbert�������s Raid To The Khyber: A Personal Narrative (1850) is a book written by R. W. Bingham. It is a first-person account of the author's experiences during the 1842 campaign led by Major-General Sir Thomas Willshire against the Khyber Pass tribes in Afghanistan. The book provides a detailed description of the military campaign, including the battles and skirmishes that took place, the terrain, the climate, and the logistics of the operation. It also includes insights into the local culture and customs of the tribesmen, as well as the political and strategic considerations that informed the campaign. The author, who served as a staff officer to General Gilbert, provides a personal perspective on the events, offering his own observations and opinions on the conduct of the campaign and the personalities involved. Overall, the book is a valuable historical document that sheds light on an important episode in the history of British colonialism in South Asia.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
