Summary: "Private Journal of Henry Francis Brooke" by Henry Francis Brooke is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This journal details the experiences of Henry Francis Brooke, a Brigadier-General, during his military service commanding the 2nd Infantry Brigade at Kandahar, Southern Afghanistan, amidst the tumult of the Second Anglo-Afghan War.

At the start of the journal, the author describes the context of his deployment to Afghanistan, beginning with his preparations for the journey.
