Originally published in 1935, this a translation of the original
Chinese text. The book follows Ch'ang-Ch'un through the crowded
Chinese plains, through Mongolia, Samarkand and Afghanistan. It is
a fascianting travelogue and an intriguing insight in to medieval
Taoism. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back
to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly
expensive. Hesperides Press are republishing these classic works in
affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text
and artwork. Contents Include: Sources - Sun Hsi's Preface to the
Hsi Yu Chi - Translation of Hsi Yu Chi - Appendix - Index - Map
