具体描述
In January 2002 Rory Stewart walked across Afghanistan-surviving by his wits, his knowledge of Persian dialects and Muslim customs, and the kindness of strangers. By day he passed through mountains covered in nine feet of snow, hamlets burned and emptied by the Taliban, and communities thriving amid the remains of medieval civilizations. By night he slept on villagers' floors, shared their meals, and listened to their stories of the recent and ancient past. Along the way Stewart met heroes and rogues, tribal elders and teenage soldiers, Taliban commanders and foreign-aid workers. He was also adopted by an unexpected companion-a retired fighting mastiff he named Babur in honor of Afghanistan's first Mughal emperor, in whose footsteps the pair was following.
Through these encounters-by turns touching, con-founding, surprising, and funny-Stewart makes tangible the forces of tradition, ideology, and allegiance that shape life in the map's countless places in between.

评分为什么是阿富汗？ 作者罗瑞·斯图尔特已经穿越了伊朗、尼泊尔、印度等地……在书的前几章，他表述了自己的初衷，阿富汗是他的徒步旅行中所缺的一环,“从荒漠到喜马拉雅，从波斯，希腊到印度文化，从伊斯兰教到佛教从神秘主义的伊斯兰，到军事组织的伊斯兰。”这样一个文化互相...
