First English separate edition. Text in English. In publisher’s printed wrappers. 28 p. First English separate edition of Stein’s report on his second major expedition to Central Asia between 1906 and 1908. The text is the translation of the paper Stein read at the Hungarian Geographical Society on April 23 and 26 1909 as it is stated on the first page. Although it reads on the cover in German that this is a separate offprint it is misleading because in “Földrajzi Közlemények” the paper was published in Hungarian supposedly the cover title of the Hungarian edition was – by mistake – also translated and for some reason not into English but German. The first English journal edition with slightly different text is the one in Geographical Journal for July and September 1909 which is the text of Stein’s lecture to the Royal Geographical Society meeting of 8 March 1909.
