Author: RONALDSHAY, The Earl of
Seller: Rootenberg Rare Books & Manuscripts (United States)
Description: Edinburgh & London: William Blackwood & Sons, 1902. FIRST EDITION.

Modern cloth with the original illustrated cover pasted on, card of the Norfolk & Norwich Library on the bottom of the front cover and their large bookplate on the paste-down, new endpapers; interior very clean.

Released at a time when much of this part of the world was unknown to the European traveler, the author describes his journeys through Tibet, Siberia, Tian Shan, and the Himalayas, including stories about the people he met and the fascinating political climate. This work provides a detailed and interesting look at life in Central Asia for both travelers and residents at the end of the nineteenth century.
