An Armchair Traveller's History of the Silk Road by Jonathan Clements
The Silk Road is not a place, but a journey - a route from the edges of the Mediterranean to the central plains of China, through high mountains and inhospitable deserts. This book offers the reader a chronological outline of the region's development, but also provides an introduction to its languages, literature and arts.
Jonathan Clements has written books on several figures associated with the Silk Road, including Kublai Khan, Marco Polo, Empress Wu and Carl Gustaf Mannerheim. He is also the author of Beijing: The Biography of a City.
