A Ride to Khiva. Travels and Adventures in Central Asia. Classics of Exploration

Publisher: Time Life, 1986
Used. Reprint of 1876 Ed. xviii + 487pp.  folding maps including 2 in pockets. , marbled e.ps, gilt lettered simulated leather,

Captain Frederick Burnaby was already something of a legend. For a start he was reputed to be the strongest man in the British Army, standing six-foot-four and weighting over 200 pounds. He also spoke no fewer than seven languages, including Russian and Turkish, and possessed a most vigorous and colorful prose style.

Unknown to his superiors, who would have forbidden the venture, he rode for over a thousand miles across steppe and desert, struggling through blizzards and snowdrifts, to reach forbidden Khiva. Burnaby was ordered home by an alarmed government and there he immediately sat down and wrote this best-selling account of his adventures.
