Afghan Faces

The wonderful and photogenic people of Afghanistan are not always understood by an outside world used to seeing images of the country's ongoing and painful conflict. This book offers the reader a unique insight into the people of this troubled country.

Producing Afghan Faces was a huge challenge involving a high risk visit to Afghanistan in August 2010 for John Casson and professional photographer Jeremy Rata. There they joined former ITN reporter and presenter of News At Ten, Sandy Gall, who has written the foreword to the book. During their visit, the team faces the harrowing scene of a terrorist attack that had taken place just a few hours earlier.
