Road Through Kurdistan
Author: A. M. Hamilton
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 0857716522
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
Road Through Kurdistan is an enthralling story, packed with adventure, of one man's determination in the face of adversity. In 1928, A.M. Hamilton travelled to Iraqi Kurdistan, having been commissioned to build a road that would stretch from Northern Iraq through the mountains and gorges of Kurdistan and on to the Iranian border. Now called the Hamilton Road, this was, even by today's standards, a remarkable feat of engineering and remains one of the most strategically important roads in the region. In this colourful and engaging account, Hamilton describes the four years he spent overcoming immense obstacles – disease, ferocious brigands, warring tribes and bureaucratic officials – to carve a path through some of the most beautiful but inhospitable landscapes in the world. A classic of travel writing, Road Through Kurdistan is also an invaluable portrayal of the Iraqi Kurds themselves, as well of the Kurdish regions of Northern Iraq.
