Interesting synopsis, one of the classics and deservedly so. However a bit dated, understandable since it was written 1990. The great game is very much alive and it clearly is time to have a sequel tying up the end of the Soviet with the current momentous developments. The book is also quite partial to the British, trending to present the same action as excusable if committed by the queen's forces and barbaric if committed by the tsar's men.
