‎Le voyage en Asie centrale et au Tibet. Anthologie des voyageurs occidentaux du moyen âge à la première moitié du XXème siècle.‎

‎Robert Laffont, collection Bouquins, 1980. Fort volume in-8 broché (1520 pages !), couverture décorée. En belle condition.‎

‎"Samarkand, Boukhara, Khiva... Kachgar, Dunhuang, Lhassa... Route de la soie, monts Célestes, désert du Gobi, passes de l'Himalaya... Cités fabuleuses et espaces grandioses du coeur de l'Asie sont "d'un autre monde", celui que traversèrent et où vécurent en nomades des voyageurs venus d'Occident, envoyés du pape à la cour des Mongols, espions du Grand Jeu ou archéologues pilleurs de monastères du début du XXe siècle. A travers l'histoire, ils eurent en commun la volonté de découvrir les secrets de l'Asie centrale ou du Tibet, malgré les formidables obstacles que leur opposèrent la nature et les hommes. Les révolutions - russe, de 1917, et chinoise, de 1949 - tentèrent d'effacer la mémoire de leurs peuples. Nos intrépides voyageurs, témoins ou acteurs de ces siècles passés, rapportent par leurs écrits (dont beaucoup étaient tombés dans l'oubli et d'autres étaient restés inédits) la dimension humaine d'un monde demeuré longtemps inaccessible."
