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>
A worldwide bestseller in the 1920s and named one of National Geographic Adventure magazine's “100 Greatest Adventure Books of All Time,” the National Geographic Adventure Classics edition of My Life as an Explorer features an expedition map and exclusive reprints of articles Hedin wrote for National Geographic between 1897 and 1905.</p>

评分 评分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...
评分地理大发现后,大航海的探险精神激励着一代又一代的欧洲人,梦想去填补地图空白,抛开伟大探险家还是文武掠夺者的争论,斯文赫定可以说是那个年代最牛逼的驴友。一次命运的垂青,年轻的斯文赫定第一次旅行就跨越山海,横渡波罗的海、纵穿欧洲俄国、翻越大高加索,在黑海海斌盘...
