Cottoning On to Karimov

For anyone wanting to find out more about Uzbekistan's cotton harvest - either in preparation for September 1st or simply out of curiosity - there are probably few better places to start than this photo essay, brought to you by the Institute for War and Peace Reporting, always a good source for information on what's going on in the country. (Props to Pitch in for Uzbekistan for the heads up on this one.)
