Possibly an accompaniment to the book Cabool: A Personal Narrative of a Journey to, and Residence in that City, in the Years 1836, 7, and 8 - an account of an 18-month voyage undertaken by Sir Alexander Burnes and three companions by order of the governor-general of India. The map is published by the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge, 59 Lincolns Inn Fields, August 15th 1838. However, the book in mention was originally published by John Murray (Albemarle Street, London) in 1842.
This map being mostly the product of Burnes's other expedition to Bokhara (Bukhara) in 1834/5 - please note that in our possession is another identical map signed by Burnes himself (not for sale)
