Description
Excerpt from The Pathan Revolt in North-West India
It is conceivable that any one of these theories is an explan tion, or that these causes, each in turn, have helped to kindle the spirit of revolt. Or it is possible that the true reasons for the great frontier disturbances of 1897 are to be found in purely local causes, and that the subsequent gigantic preportions to which they reached were due entirely to the momentary success over the British Raj which ?attered the characteristic vanity of the fanatical Mussalman on the frontier and made him believe that the days of the Sirkar were numbered, that the ?ag of Islam was to be unfurled and all infidels from Kabul to Cape Comorin swept into the sea.
