New York: NBM Publishing. New. 2014. Second Edition. First Printing; Paperback. 1561638854 . B&W Illustrations; 8.9 X 6.0 X 0.9 inches; 320 pages; New. Soft cover has black spine with yellow, red and black lettering. Pages are clean and tight. Illustrated with b/w maps, photographs and graphic art by the author. 'Part graphic novel travelog, part tongue-in-cheek travel guide, here are the adventures of caustic cartoonist Rall in the wild and wooly central Asian countries, a powder keg sitting on tomorrow's oil ... Combines articles with comics chapters relating his experiences retracing the old legendary Silk Road starting with the sublime history of China and ending in the absurdity of the petty dictatorships of the "The 'Stans" where Rall had the temerity - or was it blustery stupidity? - to go back, including once with a group of listeners to his radio show, on a dare. It's exotic adventure, satire and a fun way to find out more about a part of the world that looms in importance with its immense reserves of oil ...' Bibliography. .
