Bøger i Ruins of Desert Cathay 2 Volume Set serien

In this two-volume work, published in 1912, the Hungarian-born archaeologist Marc Aurel Stein (1862-1943) describes his second expedition to the deserts of Chinese Turkestan in 1906-8. Written for a non-specialist readership, and highly illustrated, Stein's account of his expedition and discoveries in the Dunhuang caves makes for fascinating reading.
