Lonely Planet: The world's leading travel guide publisher*
This is not a guidebook. And it's definitely 'not-for-parents'. It is the real inside story about one of the world's most exciting continents - Asia. In this book you'll hear fascinating tales about Samurai warriors and Bollywood legends, fabulous carpets, explosive volcanoes, and modern-day pirates. Check out cool stories about hunting with golden eagles, dog astronauts, guerilla warfare, and eccentric dictators. You'll find holy cows, purple people, some seriously tough mountain folk, and history galore. This book shows you an Asia your parents probably don't even know about.
