In 1984, a young British photographer set off on an extraordinary eighteen-month overland journey from Istanbul to Beijing, walking and hitchhiking across closed borders without a visa. Disguised as an itinerant traveller, Danziger slips into Iran, joins Afghan rebels dodging Soviet gunships, and becomes one of the first Westerners in decades to cross into remote western China. A gripping, bestselling account of daring, endurance and the vanishing world along the old Silk Road.
