In the 1960s hundreds of thousands of young Westerners, inspired by
Kerouac and the Beatles, blazed the 'hippie trail' overland from
Istanbul to Kathmandu in search of enlightenment and a bit of cheap
dope. Since the Summer of Love, the countries that offered so much
to these dreamers have confronted the full force of modernity and
transformed from worlds of Western fantasy to political minefields.
Through a landscape of breathtaking beauty Rory MacLean retraces
the path of the once well-worn 'hippie trail' from Turkey to Iran,
Afghanistan to Pakistan, India to Nepal, meeting trail veterans and
locals on his way, and relives wide-eyed adventures as he witnesses
a world of extraordinary and terrifying transformation.
