Description
Eric Newby's account of his journey through one of the most remote and beautiful wildernesses on earth is a testament to the power of adventure and the human spirit. In 1956, Newby, a young man working in London's haute couture, embarked on a journey from Mayfair to Afghanistan, driven by a desire for excitement and a sense of restlessness. With little preparation and a sense of amateurishness, he set out on a month-long adventure in the Hindu Kush mountains, north-east of Kabul.
