Every war has a war story. The Kashmir Book Collection features essential reading on the human aspect of the "forever" conflict in Kashmir, the world's most militarized zone. American scholar and storyteller Farhana Qazi takes you inside this pristine valley, straddled between nuclear-armed India and Pakistan, to share the raw emotions of a people struggling to survive the brutalities of war--a place where madmen, militants, and the military battle one another. This series offers proven research showing how people manage difficult life or death situations, focusing on the emotional well-being of women, who channel their energy into activism. With heartbreaking stories and descriptive prose, Qazi interviews the visible women of Kashmir: political activists, peacemakers, protestors, and ex-prisoners. These women all have one thing in common: they demand change to the Indian occupation of eight million people. Women deserve basic civil liberties and the right to human security. Like their men, women are calling for an end to torture, communication blackouts, curfews, and lockdown. These women are not the silent sufferers of war but the brave activists determined to bring peace to the valley. Uplifting and emotional, Qazi offers this two-volume set to show that the chain of struggle is unbroken until freedom is granted to the Kashmiri people. The inspiring examples of women, who fight with words and non-violent resistance, are a testimony of their strength and solidarity. This collection traces the lives, passions, and roles of women as they fight for self-determination. PRAISE FOR THE KASHMIR BOOK COLLECTION "A brilliant read. This book reveals why human security is a global issue." - Ambassador Prudence Bushnell "Qazi brings the colors, smells, people and politics of Kashmir to life." - Porter Fox, Editor of Nowhere Magazine "This powerful book provides emotional insight into this divided region." - Ross Kaufman, Academy Award-winning Filmmaker “Qazi gives us insights into rarely visible Kashmir. Her powerful narrative and sensitive, brilliant storytelling, reveal her personal background and in-depth research experiences in Kashmir. A highly skilled writer, Qazi also provides a heart-and-soul connection for the reader that has been featured in organized panels at the United Nations.” - Lois A. Herman, United Nations "Farhana Qazi, a Texan of Pakistani descent, has written a shimmering book about her encounters with the women of Kashmir, starting with her own mother, who joined the Pakistani Army to fight for Kashmir. Qazi travelled to this land of haunting beauty to interview activists and advisors, protestors and politicians, mothers and martyrs, educators and entertainers, and more. The result is a moving journey through what has been called "the most beautiful prison in the world." - Deborah Scroggins, Award-Winning Journalist “An American woman sets out on a journey to understand one of Asia’s longest running wars and the role of women within it. Farhana’s bravery, open-mindedness, intelligence and tenacity take her into danger, real lives, raw emotions and ultimately discovery. This is a book that must be read by those who wish to deeply understand the motivations, lives and thoughts behind women in Kashmir." - Robert Young Pelton, Author & Documentary Filmmaker “Farhana Qazi's brilliant book combines her unique personal experience with her deep knowledge of the region, its people and its culture to tell us a story far more informative about today's events than any intelligence brief. And it is beautifully written--a joy to read.” - Brian Michael Jenkins, Counter-Terrorism Expert "My new favorite author!" - Isabel, Amazon Customer "This is an important book for women and for us all." - Diane Thomas, Best-selling Author "I couldn't stop reading!" - Betsy Ashton, Amazon Customer

M. Ashraf has been writing a regular newspaper column for last four years. The column known as Kashmir First has been appearing every Sunday in Greater Kashmir, the leading English daily of Srinagar. The article which are in the form of commentaries on different topics connected with Kashmir are also carried on his website: www.kashmirfirst.com so far he has written more than 150 articles pertaining to politics, History, Environment, Tourism, Adventure Tourism, and some miscellaneous subjects. The first volume contained mostly articles about politics. The present book is the second volume in the series which contains commentaries on some other subjects like Tourism, History, and Environment etc. It is an attempt to put together briefly some parts of the tragic story of Kashmir for our younger generation who have been intentionally deprived of our history, Both ancient & recent. The present volume is to make people aware about various environmental aspects and disseminate knowledge gained from experience on different aspects of Tourism. It is hoped these commentaries will generate interest among our youth to undertake proper studies about our past as well as present. Without the knowledge of one s past, a person feels rootless and can get blown like a straw from place to place. It is also said that those who do not learn from history are condemned to repeat it.

What happens when you close your eyes? Does your mind get inundated by fond memories?Certainly! Over the past many years, my family has been bearing with my flashback moments. They have been kind by not bundling me off. They stay clear-off my territory when I collapse my eyelids.‘The Kashmir That Was’ is a collection of those flashback moments. It is a point where the unseen, unheard and unimagined sides of Kashmir converge; to let the people in the world know that Kashmir was far more than what they know of her now.Kashmir was a cauldron of modernity, philosophy, spirituality, rich culture and progressiveness. Each story in this book is a page from the simple lives that Kashmiri’s lived, many moons ago. I wish that these stories bring smiles and joyous nostalgia to the readers.

Nafsi is a collection of poetry and prose, calling you to a spiritual revolution. This compelling work examines the relationship between spirit and flesh, through poetic allure. "I have been summoned by the need to illuminate minds that have succumb to the rhetoric that the Muslim is strange - that the Muslim should be feared. I write with the sword that I am most familiar with- that is my pen. I write to declare 'Jihad' on the thing most worthy of defeating, that is my soul- the 'Nafs'" -Kashmir Maryam

As darkness falls outside; and the chill sets in; Javed Khan pulls at his hookah and begins his stories... When Kamal and his friends gather at Javed Khan’s Kashmiri shop at Landour bazaar; he enthralls them with his stories—of princes and kings; fairies and magical animals; supermen and cunning traders. Come; sit around the fire with Kamal; Shashi; Anil; Madhu and Vijay while they listen to Javed Khan’s stories of the monkey bride; the man who got swallowed by a mosquito; the bent-up double beggar who angered a ghost; and many other tales from Kashmir and beyond. In this brilliantly illustrated collection; Ruskin Bond brings alive unforgettable folktales from the misty hills of Kashmir that will delight and enchant his followers both young and old
