"From the beginning it was a silly idea. This of course, I liked." So begins NIGHT TRAIN TO TURKISTAN, Stuart Stevens' irreverent, irresistible Chinese travel tale. In 1986, Stevens, a young political consultant and writer, invited three friends to join him on an unlikely 5000-mile quest along China's ancient Silk Road. Their goal was to retrace the steps of a famous journey made in 1936 by Peter Fleming, the finest British traveler/writer of his day, who wrote about it in NEWS FROM TARTARY. NIGHT TRAIN TO TURKISTAN is high-spirited and funny, but it is also much more. It is an encounter with a gifted young observer who shares his intimate experiences and reflections with us. Read more
