Hailed as a classic upon its first publication in 1934, The
Valleys of the Assassins firmly established Freya Stark as one of her generation's
most intrepid explorers. The book chronicles her travels into Luristan, the mountainous
terrain nestled between Iraq and present-day Iran, often with only a single guide
and on a shoestring budget. Stark, described by The Times of London
as "the last of the Romantic Travellers" upon her death in 1993, published
during her lifetime more than thirty books about her travels in the Middle East.
