EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "General Appleyard and staff, Ali Musjid in distance, 1878" captures a significant moment during the Second Afghan War. Taken by John Burke, this historical image showcases General Frederick Appleyard and his staff standing proudly against the backdrop of Ali Musjid's distant tower. This photograph holds immense importance as it documents the meeting between Major Cavagnari and Faiz Mohomed Khan at Lala Chini's tower. The tower itself is visible in the background, serving as a reminder of the crucial negotiations that took place there. Lieutenant-General Sir Samuel Browne's Peshawar Valley Field Force successfully captured Shargai Heights during their assault on Ali Masjid fortress on November 21st, 1878. Brigadier-General Frederick Appleyard played a pivotal role in leading the 3rd Infantry Brigade during this attack. After securing Khyber Pass, the Field Force advanced towards Jalalabad to further advance their mission. This photo offers us a glimpse into one of those important moments that shaped history. Part of an album consisting of 100 photographs by J Burke, this particular image is housed at London's National Army Museum. It serves as a testament to not only General Appleyard's leadership but also to the bravery and dedication exhibited by all soldiers involved in this campaign. As we observe this photograph today, we are reminded of its significance within military history and appreciate its preservation for future generations to learn from.
