Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Printed Full Colour - Satin. ## Shadow of the Silk Road: A Journey Through Time and Terrain by Colin Thubron 2006 ### 7 ## THIS BOOK: Classified as; AS NEW, it is the 2006 Third Edition. The book was first published in Great Britain in 2006 by Chatto & Windus. This book is clean and tidy, and the spine is tight. ### We provide images to all our books and maps so you know what you buy. READ ON for more information and details. ## ## Introduction: Shadow of the Silk Road by Colin Thubron is a captivating travelogue that embarks on an epic journey along the ancient Silk Road?a network of trade routes connecting the East and West. Thubron's exploration takes him through diverse landscapes, cultures, and historical remnants, making it a remarkable odyssey that spans thousands of miles. ### The Route: Thubron's chosen path winds through China, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Afghanistan, Iran, and Turkey. His mode of transport varies from local buses and donkey carts to trains, jeeps, and camels. Along this route, he encounters both the desolate expanses of the Taklamakan Desert and the strife-torn mountain valleys of contemporary conflicts. His journey begins at the tomb of the Yellow Emperor?the mythical progenitor of the Chinese people?and culminates in the ancient port city of Antioch.## ### Trade, Ideas, and Frontiers: The Silk Road was more than a commercial conduit; it facilitated the exchange of ideas, religions, and inventions. Thubron deftly weaves historical threads into his narrative, revealing how this network shaped civilisations. But Shadow of the Silk Road is not just about the past; it also delves into the complexities of modern Asia. Thubron observes the transformations in China since the Cultural Revolution, grapples with false nationalisms, and explores the discontented margins where tribe, ethnicity, language, and religion intersect.## ## Thubron: The Master of Prose and Connection: One of Thubron's trademarks is his exquisite prose. His writing captures the essence of each place, evoking its sights, sounds, and emotions. But beyond vivid descriptions, Thubron excels at connecting with people. He engages locals, listens to their stories, and invites readers into their lives. The Silk Road comes alive through these encounters?a living tapestry of humanity. ## Conclusion: Shadow of the Silk Road is more than a travelogue; it explores time, culture, and the human spirit. Thubron's journey resonates with readers, inviting us to traverse geographical distances and the depths of our shared history. As we follow his footsteps, we glimpse the shadows of empires, the whispers of traders, and the echoes of forgotten civilisation ## ## INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Please Note. FREE SHIPPING IS UK ONLY.
