Under The Absolute Amir - Gyan Books

About The Book: Under the Absolute Amir by Frank A. Martin offers a rare firsthand account of life in Afghanistan during the reign of Amir Abdur Rahman Khan. Serving as Engineer-in-Chief, Martin spent eight years in Kabul, witnessing the country's strict autocratic rule, harsh justice system, and controlled society. The book details his engineering work, modernization efforts, and experiences as one of the few Europeans in the kingdom. Through vivid descriptions, drawings, and photographs, Martin reveals Afghanistan's culture, politics, military, and daily life during the “Great Game” era.
