Through Afghan Passes

A historical adventure novel set during the Second Anglo-Afghan War (1878–1880). The story follows the courageous young protagonist, William Gale, who through many stirring adventures among the Malays, finds his way to Calcutta and enlists in the army headed for the Afghan passes. He accompanies the force under General Roberts to the Peiwar Kotal, is wounded, taken prisoner, and takes part in the final defeat of the army of Ayoub Khan.
