The vast steppe and one of the world's most remote landscapes, introduced in a 1967 pocket guide.
Written by Herold J. Wiens, this booklet is part of the American Geographical Society's Around the World series. Founded in 1851, the Society is the oldest nationwide geographical organization in the U.S., and its travel booklets were built to expand geographical knowledge for policymakers and the curious alike — a fascinating window into a country rarely covered in Western travel writing of the era.
A meaningful gift for a teacher, world historian, or travel book collector building out the full Around the World series.
