Scinde V1: Or The Unhappy Valley is a book written by Richard Francis Burton and published in 1851. The book is a travelogue that describes the author's journey through the province of Scinde (now known as Sindh) in Pakistan. Burton was a British explorer and diplomat who traveled extensively throughout the Middle East and Asia, and his account of his travels in Scinde is a fascinating insight into the region's culture, history, and geography.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of Burton's journey through Scinde. He describes the landscape, the people he meets, the customs and traditions of the region, and the political situation at the time. Burton also provides detailed accounts of his encounters with local tribes, including the Baloch and the Sindhis, and his experiences of traveling through the desert.Scinde V1: Or The Unhappy Valley is a richly detailed and engaging account of a little-known region of the world. It is an important historical document that sheds light on the British Empire's relationship with the Middle East and Asia in the 19th century. The book is also a valuable resource for anyone interested in travel writing, anthropology, and cultural studies.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
