The only book out there
2007/10/24
形式:ペーパーバック
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.

Excellent primer on Afghanistan
2009/5/24
形式:ペーパーバック
In preparation for a military deployment to the country I had been doing extensive reading on all aspects of Afghanistan, which can get depressing. So I picked up the book in the hopes of getting a current, positive view of the country by someone with first-hand knowledge and a appreciation for the culture, and was not disappointed. If you are looking for the fastest way to get your head around its complicated history, the first 60 pages hits all the critical events neatly and is probably the best short history I've come across. As someone not planning on utilizing the actual travel information, the rest of the book serves as a good introduction to the various regions and major cities and gives you an appreciation for the geospacial relationships within and the layout of the country, its topography, and the general flow of its cities. The traveler specific information (transportation, lodging, food, costs, etc) seem very detailed and complete, with many options per city and reviews, addresses, phone etc for each. Seems like if would be very usable to a traveler. Throughout it ties in cultural as it applies to the modern westerner and by the end you'll have a pretty good frame of reference for further study. Certainly a must for anyone visiting as a tourist (but remember the security situation is quite different now, as the book also warns), and I think also an important read for the soldier that can give you the quick look at modern Afghanistan and also its history from a perspective we're generally not provided.

Not a Good "Guide", but worth reading for general info
2009/10/17
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
...this after just getting back from Afghanistan ...as a tourist. Take everything in this book with a grain of salt. It's a fast moving country and to try and list "tourist" sites, places to stay, and places to eat could be portentially deadly. Good background info read before you go, definitely, but used as a "guide" ...good luck. Left mine at the Serena in Kabul (in the library if you need one while your there). The first LP guide which really lent credence to the "Lonely Liar" reputation LP has around the world.
One star because, honestly, LP should not be trying to put out a guide to a country in this kind of shape which is changing so dramatically and quickly. The book was probably outdated before it even hit the shelves. But hey, so what if people read it, get the wrong idea and get killed there, as long as they make money, right?
