Danziger's Travels

£12.99

After walking and hitch-hiking through southern Turkey and the ayatollah's Iran, Danziger entered Afghanistan illegally in the wake of a convoy of Chinese weapons and spent two months dodging Russian helicopter gunships with rebel guerillas. He was the first foreigner to cross from Pakistan into the closed western province of China since the revolution of 1949. Living and travelling with local people and pitting his wits against officialdom, Danziger broke barriers and crossed boundaries of all kinds. Written with engaging humour and zest for life, and illustrated with the author?s own photographs and drawings.
