The current small display in the British Library, until 20 March. relates
to Afghanistan and Anglo-Russian rivalry in the 19th century, this
exhibition was occasioned by the recent acquisition of papers of Earl
Lytton, Viceroy 1876-80. The heading to one showcase refers to "The Great
Game" (as in "Kim"). One exhibit is a manuscript map of a journey from
Delhi via Lahore to Kabul and onwards in Afghanistan.
