MIDDLE EAST TRAVEL
VALLEY OF THE GIANT BUDDHAS
Memoirs and Travel
Morag Murray Abdullah
Octagon Press, London, 1993
In My Khyber Marriage, Morag Murray, a Scotswoman, tells the story of her romance and marriage to a handsome Afghan prince during the tumultuous days of the First World War. In Valley of The Giant Buddhas she describes the adventures and discoveries of her life in Afghanistan.
As a Westerner in an Eastern land, and as a woman in a man's world, her perspective is filled with wonder as well as humor. She opens up a land that is unfamiliar to most of us who know little of Afghanistan except as a former battleground for the superpowers.
>From the far corners of this exotic land, to the spotlight of international diplomacy, Morag Murray's warm humanity illuminates the charm of everyday life and the struggles of kings and rulers.
