Introduction by Anthony Brandt.</p>
Over the course of three decades in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Swedish geographer and explorer Sven Hedin traveled Central Asia¼s ancient Silk Road, along the way discovering lost cities, mapping uncharted rivers, and seeing more of “the roof of the world” than any European before him. Illustrated with 160 sketches by the author, this larger-than-life memoir captures the splendor of now-vanished civilizations, the excitement of unearthing ancient monuments, the chilling terror of snow-clogged mountain passes, the danger of infiltrating Tibet and of outwitting Torgut bandits, and the honor of close friendships with royalty from Peking to London.</p>

評分1,第一章的“同在一个车厢的是带着老婆孩子跑路的波斯……商人”。“跑路”在中文里应该是什么意思!我特意翻到前面又看一遍,没弄懂为啥要跑路?这个译者周山很有名吗?就这水准? 2,排版很不用心。第一章结尾,应该是最后一段开头部分,莫名其妙的出现了第二章的标题!而且...
