Diary of a March Through Sinde and Afghanistan

"Diary of a March Through Sinde and Afghanistan" offers a firsthand account of military life and religious reflection during the British campaigns of 1842. Written by Isaac Nicholson Allen, a chaplain serving with the troops under General Sir William Nott, this volume combines personal observations of the march through Sinde and Afghanistan with sermons delivered to the soldiers.

Allen's diary provides insights into the daily experiences of the British forces, the challenges of traversing unfamiliar and often hostile terrain, and the interactions with local populations. The inclusion of sermons offers a unique perspective on the spiritual life of the soldiers and the role of religion in maintaining morale during wartime. This historical document is valuable for anyone interested in the military history of the British Empire, the religious practices of the era, and the personal stories of those who participated in these significant campaigns.
