About this book

Fitzroy Maclean's 1958 book A Person From England transports readers to the mythical towns of Turkestan, including Merv, Khiva, Bokhara, and Samarkand. Western visitors have long been enthralled with these places, and Maclean brings back memories of spies and explorers who formerly ventured inside the Khanates of Turkestan. His eloquent narrative portrays a way of life that is vanishing in this atmospherically beautiful area.
