Powerful and Vivid,
This review is from: Buzkashi: Game and Power in Afghanistan (2nd Edition) (Symbol and Culture) (Paperback)
Azoy describes a fascinating relationship between Afghanistan's "national sport" and its political evolution. Witty and genuine, his firsthand accounts of traditional Afghan notions of power, status and honor give the book a unique flavour. Buzkashi is short, but informative. Easy to read and enjoy, it made me want to ride like the wind, dead goat in hand, to victory and glory!

This review is from: Buzkashi: Game and Power in Afghanistan (2nd Edition) (Symbol and Culture) (Paperback)
I am a senior military advisor to the Afghan military. I found this book to be invaluable. I have shared it with fellow senior advisors and they agree of its value and wish they had read it earlier in their tour.
