5.0 out of 5 stars
comprehensive and beautiful, January 18, 2007
This review is from: Afghanistan: The Land that Was (Hardcover)
We lived in the country for 14 years back in the 50s and 60s and love to remember the people and places there.
The photographer has captured the mystery, beauty and character of both. We own a copy and have bought
it for our children to also enjoy as they remember our life and travels in Afghanistan. Although much has
changed poliltically, much remains the same. We discovered that on a recent visit. So this beautiful book
still has a message for the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars
The only book on Afghanistan you ever need to buy., August 30, 2006
This review is from: Afghanistan: The Land that Was (Hardcover)
The photographs say it all! After acknowledging the poverty that does exist they lay open the richness of spirit of people who have withstood the test of time and found their way. They have not been born-again. They were here at the beginning. What entrepreneural way of life could offer them anything, anything but the gift of being left alone. Look into their eyes.
