From the romantic conflicts of the Victorian Great Game to the
war-torn history of the region in recent decades, "Tournament of
Shadows" traces the struggle for control of Central Asia and Tibet
from the 1830s to the present. The original Great Game, the
clandestine struggle between Russia and Britain for mastery of
Central Asia, has long been regarded as one of the greatest
geopolitical conflicts in history. Many believed that control of
the vast Eurasian heartland was the key to world dominion. The
original Great Game ended with the Russian Revolution, but the
geopolitical struggles in Central Asia continue to the present day.
In this updated edition, the authors reflect on Central Asia's
history since the end of the Russo-Afghan war, and particularly in
the wake of 9/11.
