TRAVELS TO BOKHARA,
AND VOYAGE UP THE INDUS.
BY LIEUT. BURNES.
“Mr. Burnes is the first European of modern times who has navigated the Indus. Many years have passed since the English Library has been enriched with a book of travels, in value at all comparable with this. Mr. Burnes is evidently a man of strong and masculine talents, high spirit, and elegant taste, well qualified to tread in the steps of our Malcolms and Elphinstones.”—London Quarterly Review.
“Though comparisons may be and often are odious, we do not think we shall excite one resentful feeling, even among the travellers whose productions we have reviewed during a course approaching twenty years, when we say that so interesting a publication of that class as the present, has not fallen under our notice.”—London Literary Gazette.
