The Last Secrets of the Silk Road by Alexandra Tolstoy

Alexandra Tolstoy recounts the incredible sojourn she made with three companions in 1999 through some of the most ruggedly beautiful and least-explored countries and areas of the world, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgzstan, the Taklamakan Desert and, finally, China. In lands associated with Genghis Khan, Marco Polo, Alexander the Great, Peter Fleming, and "The Great Game," Alexandra and her intrepid companions - Sophia ("Mouse") Cunningham, Victoria ("Wic") Westmacott, and Lucy Kelaart - encountered extremes of climate and landscape, braved dangers, and found camaraderie and friendship, on an eight-month-long journey of a lifetime.
