*Features* Cover Type: Paperback with 244 pages Published by: Lonely Planet Edition: 1st Edition August 15, 2007 Written in: English ISBN 10 Number: 1740596420 ISBN 13 Number: 978-1740596428 Book Dimensions: 7.6 x 5 x 0.5 inches Weighs: 8.5 ounces *Product Review* "This is not the typical guidebook for the typical tourist; it is meant for armchair travelers and the few independent ones who are up for the challenge." --New York Times, August 26, 2007 This is not the typical guidebook for the typical tourist; it is meant for armchair travelers and the few independent ones who are up for the challenge.' --New York Times, August 26, 2007 *Product Description* Discover Afghanistan Blink as you emerge from the cliffs at the top of one of Bamiyan's enormous Buddha niches. Stop pedalling for a moment and drift in your swan-shaped pedalo on the waters of Band-e Amir. Utter a great smoking sigh of contentment as you puff on a sheesha at Mirwais Shandaiz. In This Guide: Chapters on working and safety in Afghanistan, with advice from resident expats. Specialist contributors write on journalism, women, and trekking in the Wakhan and the Afghan Pamir. Lonely Planet founder Tony Wheeler reflects on travel to Afghanistan over the decades. *Reader Reviews* This is a great first edition guide to Afghanistan. For a book without much competition, LP has provided a lot more detail than they needed to to corner this market. Helpful sidebar commentaries on Hekmatyar and other political personalities in Afghanistan. The security situation has worsened since the book was written, so some of the land routes described here are no longer viable. Only complaint: the maps are full of careless errors, which are disappointing to discover stumbling around Kabul at dusk. Doesn't anyone proofread these things? Hopefully these will get ironed out in the next edition. Back To Top
