HEDIN, Sven
Through Asia two volumes
London: Methuen & Co Ltd 1898. 2 VOLS well illus large 8vo two folding maps pp xx 1278 top edge gilt fore-edge un-trimmed scattered foxing green decorated cloth gilt very slightly worn slight tears to both spine heads. Sven Anders Hedin 1865 - 1952 was a Swedish geographer topographer explorer photographer and travel writer as well as an illustrator of his own works. During four expeditions to Central Asia he discovered the Transhimalaya once named the Hedin Range in his honor and the sources of the Brahmaputra Indus and Sutlej Rivers Lake Lop Nur and the remains of cities grave sites and the Great Wall of China in the deserts of the Tarim Basin. Between 1893 and 1897 Hedin investigated the Pamir Mountains travelling through the Tarim Basin in Xinjiang region across the Taklamakan Desert Lake Kara-Koshun and Lake Bosten proceeding to study northern Tibet. He covered 26000 kilometres 16000 mi on this journey and mapped 10498 kilometres 6523 mi of them on 552 sheets. Approximately 3600 kilometres 2200 miles led through previously uncharted areas. He started out on this expedition on October 16 1893 from Stockholm travelling via Saint Petersburg and Tashkent to the Pamir Mountains. Several attempts to climb the 7546 metres 24757 ft high Muztagata called the Father of the Glaciers in the Pamir Mountains were unsuccessful. He remained in Kashgar until April 1895 and then left on April 10 with three local escorts from the village of Merket in order to cross the Taklamakan Desert via Tusluk to the Khotan River. Since their water supply was insufficient seven camels died of thirst as did two of his escorts according to Sven Hedins dramatized and probably unhistoric account. Bruno Baumann traveled on this route in April 2000 with a camel caravan and ascertained that at least one of the escorts who according to Hedin had died of thirst had survived and that it is impossible for a camel caravan traveling in springtime on this route to carry enough drinking water for both camels and travelers. According to other sources Hedin had neglected to completely fill the drinking water containers for his caravan at the beginning of the expedition and set out for the desert with only half as much water as could actually be carried. When he noticed the mistake it was too late to return. Obsessed by his urge to carry out his research Hedin deserted the caravan and proceeded alone on horseback with his servant. When that escort also collapsed from thirst Hedin left him behind as well but managed to reach a water source at the last desperate moment. He did however return to his servant with water and rescued him. Nevertheless his ruthless behavior earned him massive criticism. In January 1896 after a stopover in Kashgar Hedin visited the 1500 year old abandoned cities of Dandan Oilik and Kara Dung which are located northeast of Khotan in the Taklamakan desert. Beginning of March he discovered Lake Bosten one of the largest inland waters of central Asia. He reported that this lake is supplied by a single mighty feeder stream the Kaidu River. He mapped Lake Kara-Koshun and returned on May 27 to Khotan. On June 29 he started out from there with his caravan across northern Tibet and China to Beijing where he arrived on March 2 1897. He returned to Stockholm via Mongolia and Russia. First English edition. Cloth. Good. Methuen & Co Ltd Hardcover
