Summary, etc. "Memoir of William Watts McNair, Late of 'Connaught House,' Mussooree" by J.E. Howard is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The memoir details the life and accomplishments of William Watts McNair, a surveyor and the first European explorer of Kafiristan who served in the Indian Survey Department. The book comprehensively explores his adventurous spirit, professional dedication, and notable contributions to geographical science, operating in challenging and often dangerous regions. At the start of the memoir, readers are introduced to William Watts McNair’s early life and his ascendance within the Indian Survey Department from a young age. His career highlights include mapping unknown territories in Afghanistan during the second Anglo-Afghan War and ingeniously disguising himself as a native healer to explore Kafiristan. The narrative reflects on McNair’s determination, skill in surveying, and the profound respect he garnered from colleagues, capturing not only his professional achievements but also personal insights into his character and the challenges he faced, ultimately leading to his untimely death at a young age.
