Nearly 20,000 British and East India Company troops, led by their cavalry in striking scarlet cloaks and plumed shakos, marched through treacherous mountain passes to reinstall Shah Shuja ul-Mulk on the throne. Initially, the British faced little resistance, but two years of occupation ignited a fierce and violent Afghan rebellion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"758\" data-end=\"974\"\u003eThe First Anglo-Afghan War ended in Britain’s most humiliating defeat of the 19th century: an entire army, once the most formidable in the world, was ambushed in retreat and utterly routed by poorly armed tribesmen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"976\" data-end=\"1474\"\u003eShortlisted for the Samuel Johnson Prize 2013, \u003cem data-start=\"1023\" data-end=\"1041\"\u003eReturn of a King\u003c\/em\u003e is the definitive account of this disastrous war. William Dalrymple masterfully recounts the war through the perspectives of unforgettable characters on all sides and incorporates Afghan accounts, providing a fresh and compelling analysis. This powerful retelling of Britain’s greatest imperial disaster serves as a profound parable of colonial ambition, cultural clashes, and the folly of imperial arrogance—relevant for our times.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mehta Publishing House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49873281384752,"sku":"DRG.MehtaPublishingHouse__9789353171377","price":536.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/mehta-publishing-house-book-default-title-return-of-a-king-41075607404848.jpg?v=1775962060","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/return-of-a-king","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
