Apples in the Snow

Meer over het boek

Starting near the roof of the world on the Soviet Union's border with China, Geoffrey Moorhouse's journey through Central Asia winds across mountains, steppes and desert as well as the path of the retreating Red Army before reaching Tamburlaine's tomb in Samarkand. In this sequel to his award-winning book 'To the Frontier', he blends the dramatic history of this wild region with an absorbing, vivid portrait of its present.
