Sailor Up the Khyber - Nik Morton - Bog

- Following in My Father's Footsteps on the Afghan Border

Bag om Sailor Up the Khyber

June 1969: Volatile Pakistan soon after the uprisings that would eventually lead to the splitting of West Pakistan and the formation of Bangladesh. A group of Royal Navy sailors from HMS Zulu, on a visit to Karachi, use their weekend leave to travel up the famed Khyber Pass. For one, young Nik Morton, it is a momentous time. Ten days short of his twenty-first birthday, he looks forward to seeing with his own eyes the land his father fell in love with during the Second World War. Flying for the first time, he finds himself in a strange and wonderful land, oozing history… and danger. This gentle true story introduces the reader to a new insight on one of the most disputed territories on earth. Nik Morton served in the Royal Navy for twenty-three years. He is the author of more than thirty books and is a prolific short story and article writer.
