A Ride to Khiva

Autor: Fred Burnaby

Žánr: Cizojazyčná literatura > English literature > Nonfiction > Travel

An immediate bestseller when first published in 1877, Burnaby s delight in a life of risk and adventure still burns through the pages, as does his spontaneous affection for the Cossack troopers and Tartar, Khirgiz and Turkoman tribesmen that he encounters on his way.
