The Carpet Wars

Christopher Kremmer

Publisher:HarperCollins Publishers (Australia) Pty Ltd

The Carpet Wars is foreign correspondent Christopher Kremmer's riveting and timely account of a decade spent living, travelling and reporting from Asia and the Middle East. During that time he formed an obsession with carpets and the 'perfect rug' — an obsession that saw him trace the threads of the carpet-making trade through the Islamic nations of Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq and the former Soviet republics of Central Asia. Along the way he made lifelong friendships, but he also discovered societies ripped apart by war, religion and fratricide, and ruled over by warlords like 'The Lion of Panjsher' Ahmed Shah Massoud - and terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden. The Carpet Wars tells the story of Kremmer's amazing journey and his fascinating but fraught experiences in one the most ancient, misunderstood and least-touristed parts of the world.
