Punjaub Battery preparing to enter the Durwanzal Pass into the Koorum Valley, 1857. Creator: Unknown
The War with Persia - Punjaub Battery preparing to enter the Durwanzal Pass into the Koorum Valley, 1857. Sketch by a Correspondent, of the Punjaub Artillery showing...the Peshawur Madras Force on the line of march. A gun, or howitzer, and its carriage are carried on three mules, exclusive of the mules for ammunition. This battery for the march can be prepared for action in less than a minute, and can be again packed and got ready for the march in a much shorter time. This expedition has been so far useful, that nothing was before known of the country except from native information: now a most valuable survey has been made by Lieut. Garnett, of the Engineers, and Lieut. Lumsden of the Quartermaster-General's Depot; while the Koorum Valley may now be considered the high road between India and Cabul, being much more practicable in every point of view than through the Khybur Pass'. From "Illustrated London News", 1857
