An Unexpected Light: Travels in Afghanistan

£8.99

Elliot first visited the country as a teenager during the war with the Soviet Union. On this visit he travelled with the mujaheddin, on later visits he travelled independently. Afghanistan is a country not often in the news for its spectacular beauty, kind people and ancient history, and until now the picture we had of it was far from complete. This spectacular and compelling book goes a long way towards completing this picture.
