Publisher's Synopsis
Uzbekistan is an exotic travel destination, but doesn't always come highly recommended. It borders on a war zone and is, itself, politically unstable. But what an enticement... The hub of Central Asia and the cradle of the region's culture for more than two millennia; home to ancient Silk Road cities oozing history and intrigue; a landscape of harsh desert and wild mountains; a proud and resilient people. This book is the latest in my 'Leopard Print Luggage' travel narrative series. It documents my journey through this astonishing, dazzling, fascinating and timeless land.
