A bestseller in the 1920s, this classic memoir by the great Swedish adventurer is an amazing account of hardship, adventure and exploration over three decades through the lands of the Silk Road. He journeyed by caravan to Tibet, the Gobi Desert, and India. Mapping uncharted rivers, discovering long-lost cities, revealing the splendor of now-vanished civilizations, and recording encounters with the various characters he met along the way, the author also illustrated the book with his own drawings.
