ONE HALF OF ALEXANDER'S ARMY MARCHED THROUGH THE KHYBER PASS~ At the narrow confine by Ali Masjid, where the Khyber closes to just feet in width, the army would have squeezed through, two or three abreast, looking up warily at the steep heights immediately above them; unknown creatures might inhabit these mountains, for assuredly India was full of wonders." The Khyber Pass. The name itself is fraught with a palpable sense of danger. A steep gorge separating Afghanistan from Pakistan and the northern states of India, the pass is at some stretches only fifty feet wide, and extends for about thirty miles through the Sefid Koh~ the "White Mountains"~ from Afghanistan in the west to the plains of Peshawar in the east. A locale of arresting beauty, it has for generations been the unconquerable linchpin of Central Asia. In The Khyber Pass: A History of Empire and Invasion, Paddy Docherty, who traveled extensively through the pass in 2003, combines the close observations of the sympathetic traveler with the analysis of the engaged historian. From a close examination of original texts, archaeological sites, ancient coins, and other artifacts, Docherty traces the history of the pass from the campaigns of the Persian emperors Cyrus and Darius to Alexander the Great, to the days of the British Raj, and modern Pakistan and Afghanistan. Docherty tells tales of conquering armies, diabolical intrigue, and intermarriage among clans; of the flourishing of culture and thought, and the cross~fertilization of Buddhism, Islam, Sikhism, and Zoroastrianism. But in the pass, the present is always presaged by the past. To this day, the pass is important strategically and militarily, from its part in the defeat of the great Soviet army by the Afghan mujahadeen, to its crucial role in the current conflict with AI Qaeda and the Taliban. Docherty helps us see the region afresh and chronicles events that reverberate and resonate today.
