The Making of a Frontier is a travelogue written by Algernon George Arnold Durand, chronicling his experiences and adventures during his five-year stay in Gilgit, Hunza, Nagar, Chitral, and the Eastern Hindu-Kush region of India, in the late 19th century. The book is a detailed account of Durand's travels and explorations in the region, as he interacts with the local people, learns about their culture and customs, and explores the geography and natural beauty of the area. Durand also provides insights into the political and social dynamics of the region, as he witnesses the impact of British colonialism and the struggle for power among various tribal groups. The book is an important historical document, providing a valuable perspective on the region during a significant period of its history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
