Stanford’s New Map of Kabul and the country round as far as Kohistan, Tagao, and Lughman: Gandamak, Kurram, and Shutargardan; The Upper Logar; Maidan and Argandi; with the sites of all the recent conflicts
Kabul was a war map subject in 1880, and Edward Stanford’s engravers put it on paper while the campaign was still recent news. This 1880 map of Kabul carries the full original title above.
The sheet is tonal throughout, broken only by two colored routes that tell the story:
- A line marking the route of Lieutenant Vincent Eyre and the other captives
- A second line following General Roberts’ advance
- Terrain across Kohistan, Tagao and Lughman, with several districts still labeled unexplored
Map Shop prints it from a high-resolution scan of the original in the Edward Stanford Cartographic Collection archive, with signs of age left intact. Choose paper, lamination, foam core mounting, hanging rails, or framing in black or walnut molding. It reads well on a study wall, a library shelf, or a military historian’s office.
