How to read the evidence responsibly
Digitized books and manuscripts let readers inspect how Afghanistan was described at a particular time, by a particular author, publisher, institution, or political setting.
An old book is evidence of what its author recorded or believed. It is not automatically an accurate, neutral, or current account of Afghan people and history.
Check the underlying information.
