Along the Silk Road Book Cover

Along the Silk Road
For many, the countries along the Silk Road are simply a blank on the map. Names like Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and Tajikistan are unfamiliar and strange, and the peoples they represent are often veiled behind misinformation and negative press. With an eye toward understanding what God is doing today along this ancient trade route, photographers and writers traveled from Kashgar, China, to Istanbul, Turkey gathering images and stories that highlight the peoples of Central Asia and their rich cultures. The result is a beautiful collection of more than 200 color photographs and accompanying stories that reflect the humanity, hunger and hope of the peoples living along the Silk Road. (172-pages, full-color)
