A brilliant account of a death defying walk through Afghanistan.
Rory Stewart's sparsely poetic, highly acclaimed account of his walk across Afghanistan in January 2002 has been hailed as a modern classic of travel writing.
Travelling entirely on foot and following the inaccessible, mountainous route, Stewart was nearly defeated by the hostile conditions. With the help of an unexpected companion and the generosity of the people he met on the way, however, he survived to report back on a region closed to the world by twenty-four years of war.
