Summary "The Panjab, North-West Frontier Province, and Kashmir" by Sir James McCrone Douie is a geographical and historical account written in the early 20th century. This comprehensive work explores the physical landscape, administrative details, and cultural aspects of the Panjab region, including adjacent territories like the North-West Frontier Province and Kashmir. Douie, having served over three decades in the area, offers a detailed reflection based on his extensive experience in service to British India. The beginning of the book sets the stage for an in-depth examination of the Panjab, outlining its geographical dimensions and political significance. Douie introduces the scope of his work, noting the rich diversity in demographics, geography, and geology. He emphasizes the historical context, mentioning the region's significance during various invasions and administrations, underlining the complexities of political boundaries and resource management.
