Jalalabad, a city steeped in history and resilience. From the Sortie of the Garrison of Jelalabad in 1842 to the Kabul Disaster, this place has witnessed both triumph and tragedy. Lady Florentia Sale's retreat from Kabul serves as a reminder of the hardships faced during that time. Engravings like Sunday at the Front capture moments of camaraderie amidst chaos, while The Afghan War's Grand Durbar showcases General Sir Samuel Browne's leadership on New Year's Day. Burning the Body of a Ghazi Assassin outside the Peshawur Gate reveals the fierce battles fought within these walls. But Jalalabad is not just about war; it holds hidden treasures too. Remarkable Buddhist Caverns near Jellalabad showcase its rich cultural heritage. Campfires lit by soldiers from the 10th Hussars create an atmosphere of warmth and unity amidst uncertainty. The View itself is awe-inspiring, with its rugged terrain and resilient people etched into every corner. With Sir Samuel Browne leading them, troops navigate through treacherous rivers like Cabul River but also find solace in their Bombay Division comrades. Jalalabad stands tall as a testament to bravery and determination throughout history. It reminds us that even in times of disaster, hope can be found amongst ruins. This city continues to write its story - one engraving at a time - leaving an indelible mark on Afghanistan's past and future alike.
