He encouraged the author and said that the book revealed the whole history of the Peshawar Cantt in a very soft and mild tone. "Although many books had been written on the history of the area, yet this book holds a significant place among them", he added. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Imran Rasheed Imran, author of the book disclosed that there were a total of 45 cantts in Pakistan, however, he said that it was the first book on the history of any cantt. He elaborated the problems that he faced during the compilation of book. "I visited many civilians, military officials, politicians and other well-known personalities of cantt to support him, but I was ignored at every door-step.
