Have you joined jstor = this is a free online study sight were I got a lot of photos and written info to , I would say cheque it out , I think you will like it as they have all the reports and studies that have been done on both the Kalashi and Kati and other former Kafiri tribes ect over the last hundred years . I do own a copy of the Kafir's of the Hindu Kush which unlike the online editions has the pictures in it and it is these as well as some pictures taken in 11929 in Urtsun valley before conversion to Islam , these are of Imras and Varin's shrines and the Rikhini or holy dancing platform there . I have some of these photos on my Kafiristani album or on my facebook kafiristan album .You are welcome to copy and use what ever you want , all the best my friend . I will try and order the 2 photos from 1885 upper bashgul valley trip by the gilgit mission under lockhart ( I think or lovelock ) but these cost 70 pounds each so I might take me a few months to be able to afford the , but touch wood it all works out .Luciushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03678788213598599839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6858338720091912119.post-3282962358461127522014-03-26T14:17:13.631+04:302014-03-26T14:17:13.631+04:30Thanks for visiting the blog. i do not have any co...Thanks for visiting the blog. i do not have any copy of the book but you can find it in Amazon.com. please find the link below:<br /><br />1: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=The+K%C3%A1firs+of+the+Hindu-Kush&rh=n%3A283155%2Ck%3AThe+K%C3%A1firs+of+the+Hindu-Kush<br /><br />2: http://www.worldcat.org/title/kafirs-of-the-hindu-kush/oclc/50333243Abdul Wahidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07881896545660055062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6858338720091912119.post-5639823007805676042014-03-26T11:38:21.144+04:302014-03-26T11:38:21.144+04:30Friend, where can I find a copy of G.S.
