What is the Afghanistan history book “Tārīkh-i Afghānistān = Tarikh-i-Afghanistan” (1930)?

Reviewed by Famidi editorial team
Direct answer

The Library of Congress catalogs “Tārīkh-i Afghānistān = Tarikh-i-Afghanistan” as a digitized book dated 1930. The record is indexed for Pakistan, and History, making it a discoverable primary or historical source rather than a modern summary page.

What this adds to the history

The catalog credits Malleson, G. B. (George Bruce) as creator, contributor, or responsible organization. Attribution helps a reader investigate perspective and purpose.

The catalog connects the item with Pakistan, and Afghanistan and lists Pashto, and Pushto. It appears within African And Middle Eastern Division, and World Digital Library.

Use the table of contents, publication context, author background, footnotes, and vocabulary to identify what the book can support. Corroborate factual claims with later scholarship and Afghan sources.

Open the full Library of Congress entry before citing it. Preserve the catalog title, creator, date, item URL, and the exact page, frame, or map detail that supports the claim.

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.
