Title: The New Great Game: Blood and Oil in Central Asia by Lutz Kleveman ISBN: 0-87113-906-5 Publisher: Atlantic Monthly Press Pub. Date: September, 2003 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $24.00 |

Summary: Something for everyone.
Comment: The New Great Game argues a strong geo-political thesis for those who already have insight into the struggle for control of the resources of Central Asia. The amazing part is that at the same time it offers a pleasant read and tons of factual & anecdotal information about the region today and also provides a look back into its history. All this is told in a flowing, almost lyrical style that is good reading even for a well-educated, intelligent person who nevertheless seldom reads anything but paperback mysteries these days. It is totally out of character for me to even pick up this book. Therefore, my enjoyment of it is an excellent recommendation for the uninitiated as well as the geo-political scholar.

Summary: Fascinating read! Eye-opener!
Comment: This is one of the most brilliant books I have read in years!
Ever feel that the Bush administration's is hijacking the War on Terror to pursue U.S. oil interests in Iraq and Central Asia? Well, the journalist Lutz Kleveman traveled to the frontlines and oil fields to find out. What he discovered on his fascinating journeys from the Caucasus all the way down to Afghanistan is eye-opening..
And what an adventure tale this book is, too! The author beautifully weaves his bold political analysis into gripping travel writing. His encounters with the power players in the region, be they Russian oil bosses or Afghan warlords, make for a great read. I enjoyed every page of it!
