‘The most dangerous place in the world’ – Barack Obama

The borderlands of Afghanistan and Pakistan have become the arena for a global conflict with consequences that defy prediction. At the crossroads of Central Asia, gateway to India and the West, Afghanistan has tempted countless invaders in their quest for domination.

Written by leading regional expert Victoria Schofield, Afghan Frontier traces the history of this region as a hotly contested battlefield for millennia. As the borderlands – now dubbed ‘Af-Pak’ – assume an increasingly crucial role in international politics, understanding the history and geopolitical significance of this region has never been more important.

Afghan Frontier is a gripping portrait of the frontier territories, militant fighters and resilient tribesmen who shaped Afghanistan.
