Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from From Moscow to the Persian Gulf: Being the Journal of a Disenchanted Traveller in Turkestan and Persia
I leave the book in the shape of a journal, believing it to be both a form that has in English greater novelty than that of more ambitious works, and also one permitting a more personal expression.
