10 reviews for The Kafirs of the Hindu Kush

  1. Animesh Kumar Sahu

    Robertson paints a vivid picture of the Kafirs. A bit slow in parts, but overall, a valuable and enlightening read.

  2. Himanshi

    A fascinating glimpse into a lost world, but the writing style feels a bit dated. Robertson’s observations are insightful, but a modern perspective would have been welcome.

  3. Tanya

    Robertson’s passion for the subject shines through. A great book for understanding a unique culture, though a little lengthy.

  4. Prerana Singh

    A classic for a reason. The descriptions of the Hindu Kush are stunning, although the language can be challenging at times.

  5. Vijay Laxmi Vashisht

    A detailed and fascinating study. While occasionally heavy on detail, it’s a worthwhile journey into a unique culture.

  6. Vishal Kumar

    Interesting historical account. It’s a good source of information but can feel a bit dry. I wish there were more images.

  7. Yash Dubey

    An essential read for anyone interested in anthropology. The details about Kafir culture are incredibly rich, although some passages are a bit dense.

  8. Arvinder Singh

    I was captivated by the stories and insights into this remote region. Highly recommended for history buffs!

  9. Manoj Singh

    I found the book informative but slow-paced. It’s a valuable historical document, but not the most gripping read.

  10. Sahil Hanfi

    The book provides a unique view, but it’s clearly written from a colonial perspective. Something to keep in mind while reading.
