About the book

Eric Newby's A Short Walk in the Hindu Kush recounts an adventurous expedition into the mountains of Afghanistan. Newby and a companion set out with remarkably little mountaineering experience, leading to a journey filled with hardship, unexpected encounters and comic mishaps. The book has become a classic of British travel writing for its mixture of adventure and self-deprecating humour.
