Know about the book -

History of Afghanistan is written by Percy Sykes and published by Routledge. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1317845862 (ISBN 10) and 9781317845867 (ISBN 13).

First published in 2007. This title combines two volumes of work; fifty-eight chapters dissecting the history of Afghanistan with sketch maps and illustrations throughout. Sykes argues that few countries present problems of greater interest to the historian than landlocked Afghanistan, the counterpart in Asia of Switzerland in Europe. Their studies cover the prehistory in the Near East, going through the history of each dynasty up to the early 1900s. A key text for historians, students and those interested in the complex history of the country.
