Featuring numerous original color photographs, an extraordinary visual history of early Afghanistan.

Afghanistan, at the meeting place of the Indian subcontinent, Middle East, and Central Asia, holds a key place in the spread of ancient civilizations. Its remarkable cultural heritage includes the Bronze Age Helmand civilization, the Greek kingdom of Bactria, the Kushan Empire, and the Ghaznavid Empire--yet much of its history remains unknown. This beautifully illustrated book unveils Afghanistan's ancient cities, temples, stupas, monasteries, and other monuments set against breathtaking landscapes, presenting them to a wider audience. Incorporating the latest research and discoveries, it is a captivating journey through Afghanistan's rich antiquities, brought to life with the author's vivid, full-color photographs.
