Publisher's Note
Eric Newby was improbably earning his living in the world of London's haute couture before he undertook his fateful trip to the wild mountains of the Hindu Kush, without any previous experience mountain climbing. This classic piece of travel literature wonderfully evokes the inhospitable but spectacularly beautiful wildernesses of Afghanistan.
