On the Road to Kandahar – Travels through conflict in the Islamic World

On the Road to Kandahar describes author Jason Burke’™s journey in the summer of 1991 to join Kurdish guerillas fighting in Iraq. His remarkable journey took him from the sands of the Sahara to the highest peaks of the Himalayas, revealing the complexity and variety of the loosely defined ‘˜Islamic World.’™ Describing encounters with hundreds of people ranging from destitute refugees to senior government ministers, from American snipers to hardened mujahideen, Burke’™s work or reportage is a vivid account of life and death, war and peace, bigotry and ignorance and hate and tolerance.
