In Eastward to Tartary, Robert D. Kaplan takes us on a spellbinding
journey into the heart of a little-known but volatile region, stretching from
Romania and Bulgaria to the far shores of the oil-rich Caspian Sea. As in
Kaplan’s bestselling Balkan Ghosts, it is a journey over land and through
history, an introduction to an important and potentially explosive part of
the world that is destined to be the new fault line between East and West.
Through dramatic stories of unforgettable characters past and present,
Kaplan illuminates the tragic history of this unstable region that he
describes as the Balkans of the future. He ventures from Turkey, Syria, and
Israel to the turbulent countries of the Caucasus, from the newly rich city
of Baku to the deserts of Turkmenistan and the killing fields of Armenia.
Kaplan’s flair for historical insight, coupled with vivid observations from
his travels through this mysterious land of toppled regimes and ancient
feuds, makes fascinating reading for anyone concerned about the state of
our world in the decades to come.
“Kaplan [is] a scholarly and adventurous journalist. . , .
He draws attention to long-term trends that other writers have
little noted. ... If there is a better, more sophisticated and informed
primer to the emerging powers and problems of the Greater
Middle East, I don’t know what it is.”
— Richard Bernstein, the new tork times
