Empires of the Indus: The Story of a River【電子書籍】[ Alice Albinia ]

＜p＞“Alice Albinia is the most extraordinary traveler of her generation. . . . A journey of astonishing confidence and courage.”ーRory Stewart＜/p＞ ＜p＞One of the largest rivers in the world, the Indus rises in the Tibetan mountains and flows west across northern India and south through Pakistan. It has been worshipped as a god, used as a tool of imperial expansion, and today is the cement of Pakistan’s fractious union. Alice Albinia follows the river upstream, through two thousand miles of geography and back to a time five thousand years ago when a string of sophisticated cities grew on its banks. “This turbulent history, entwined with a superlative travel narrative” (＜em＞The Guardian＜/em＞) leads us from the ruins of elaborate metropolises, to the bitter divisions of today. Like Rory Stewart’s ＜em＞The Places In Between＜/em＞, ＜em＞Empires of the Indus＜/em＞ is an engrossing personal journey and a deeply moving portrait of a river and its people.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
