The narrator has compiled this narrative on the basis of three travelogues in Central Asia. The first trip was a short account of Marco Polo in 13th century. Then follows the travels of G.T. Vigue around 1835, and lastly of Robert Shaw towards the end of 1860’s. The term Central Asia in this book includes Kashmir and Ladakh (then known as little Tibet). Here partly, perhaps, on account of its remote and nearly inaccessible situation, and also partly from concurrent traditions many ethnologists have placed the original cradle of the Aryan race. It’s the chronicles of the author’s journeys as well as his novels and collections of poetry. It has contains 17 chapters and numerous illustrations to delineate the subject in a proper way. This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. This work was reproduced from the original artifact, and remains as true to the original work as possible.
