Summary: Talks about serious issues
Comment: This book has been professionally written by Mr. Harrison, which talks about what Baluch nationalism really meant. The author really tries to talk about the issues rather than the made up theories about nationalism. Being a baluch in the decade of innovation and globalization, it really helped me understand the why the Baluchs took on the Pakistan army; not for personal glory but for a cause most people in Pakistan do not want to understand and don't understand.
The interviews with Baluchi tribal leaders, really gives the book the authencity the most other books miss out on. What really impressed me, was the authors commitment, when he interviewed Baluchi guerilla fighters, rather than telling the same old stories about them for an outsiders prespective. Although I know that most people, have never even heard of the Baluchi people, but anyone who ever gets interested in the Baluchi people and their issues should read this book as it explains from scrath the ideology behind the Baluchi struggle for both idependence and justice by the hands of other Pakistanis. And the brief but informative chapter in the begining gives a good back ground to the origins of the Baluchi people.
