Description
This is a true story of youthful exuberance
overcoming adversity and achieving great
things. Imagine, five young 19-year-old
military cadets embarking on a 4,000-mile road
trip across Europe and Asia Minor to Iran,
having only recently qualified to drive.
This, dramatic and often hilarious tale,
illustrates how fortitude can overcome the
dangerous mix of over-confidence,
ineptness and high spirits.
Set in the very different political world of
the mid-1960’s, this book follows the
successes and mishaps of the five as they
struggle to reach Iran’s notorious “Valley of
the Assassins” high in the hazardous Elburz
Mountains and explore the infamous
“Eagle’s Nest” Fortress at Alamut.
What could possibly go wrong?
