Product Description
The remarkable story of one man's search for his friends in Afghanistan and Iran whom he has not seen for 13 years. In November 2002, Richard Loseby went in search of his friends Karim and Nebi. He travelled without the trappings of modern life, in often dangerous territory, with an old Pentax camera, a notepad, and a good pair of boots. Part travelogue, part personal quest and part mystery, this book reveals Loseby once again to be a brilliant writer, storyteller and photographer. This is the sequel to the best-selling Blue is the Colour of Heaven.

Heroic story of the search for a father March 2, 2007
Read together with Richard's first book "Blue is the colour of Heaven", this story is almost mythical in its proportions, and heart-rending in its power. In this second instalment of Loseby's search for his father among the troubled lands of the Middle East, he returns to find the man who saved his life, and guided him through war-torn Afghanistan. Loseby's trip brings him face to face with another man's search for his own father, and it is not until the last chapter this inspirational story's climax is reached, and the extraordinary purpose behind Loseby's search is revealed.
