DESCRIPTION
Binding is tight, covers and spine fully intact. Wear to spine ends and corners of boards. Ex-library with usual marks, stamps, stickers.. Afghanistan Diary is an introduction to the recent history of the troubled country since the Mujahideen capture of Kabul in 1992. Documentary photographer Edward Grazda witnessed firsthand this hugely transformative period in modern Afghan history, from the destruction of the capital city five years into a ruinous civil war between Mujahideen factions, to their defeat by the Pakistani-supported Taliban militia, whose radical interpretation of Islamic law - and its draconian enforcement - is unarguably the most extreme in the Islamic world.Photographer Edward Grazda's lens distills the simple beauty of the place and its people alongside the horror of state-sanctioned human rights abuses. Over the course of nine years, Grazda secured unprecedented access to the country through friends and ex-officials, in both Afghanistan and in the U.S., to document the profound changes there caused by the great differences between the moderate Mujahideen and their arch enemies, the Taliban. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Sociology & Culture; ISBN: 1576870472. ISBN/EAN: 9781576870471. Inventory No: 12092500.
