Afghanistan! Turbulent nation. Magnet for trouble. Crossroads of Conquerors. Why would anyone want to go there? With its turbulent tribesmen, hostile terrain, and blood-soaked history, it was the one country in Central Asia timid travelers never ventured near. That is exactly why young newspaper reporter, Gordon Sinclair, decided to head out to the Forbidden Kingdom in 1934. Officially, he was looking for a story. Privately, he was seeking that mistress called adventure. He found both! Khyber Caravan is the classic account of Sinclair s journey across British India, through the beautiful mountains of Kashmir, across the blazing deserts of Waziristan, and finally, through the famed Khyber Pass. On the way Sinclair met a host of colorful characters and observed the most famous sights in the fabled sub-continent. A pleasure to read then, Khyber Caravan is now weaving its enchanting spell for a new generation of readers.

Nel 1931, il ventitreenne Robert Fulton, fresco di laurea, durante una cena annuncia – per far colpo su una ragazza – “Voglio fare il giro del mondo in motocicletta”. Non poteva immaginare che allo stesso tavolo sedesse anche un rappresentante della Douglas, lo storico marchio inglese di motociclette, che di fronte a quelle parole fu preso da un entusiasmo e un’ammirazione incontenibili, dichiarandosi disposto a fornirgli il necessario per l’impresa. Ebbe inizio così, per caso, il primo giro del mondo in motocicletta di cui si abbia testimonianza. Un viaggio attraverso ventidue paesi, da Londra a New York passando attraverso Europa, Medio Oriente e Asia, un’avventura durata diciotto mesi in cui Fulton vivrà “un’Odissea a due cilindri”, alla scoperta di mondi e culture nascoste, in balia degli eventi e dell’imprevedibile. Fulton è sfuggito agli spari delle tribù Pashtun al confine tra Afghanistan e Pakistan, è scampato all’assalto dei banditi iracheni, è stato rinchiuso nelle carceri turche, si è trovato nel mezzo di vere e proprie guerre civili. Eppure, ha trovato anche un mondo di grande umanità e di semplice ricchezza che lo ha accolto e aiutato nei momenti più difficili. Scritto in punta di penna e accompagnato dalle fotografie dello stesso Fulton, One man caravan è il racconto di un’avventura leggendaria e di un mondo lontano da quello che conosciamo, ancora tutt’altro che globalizzato, un racconto che ha segnato profondamente la letteratura di viaggio e ha ispirato moltissimi amanti dell’avventura.

A young boy accompanied his father on his business trip on a caravan train that used the Silk Road to the Far East countries in a past era. There were camels and horses used to pull these trains that were vulnerable to being attacked by outlaws who were in constant search for victims to rob and livestock to take. His mother had died, and while he does not remember her, he does know his aunt that had looked after him when his father left under the benign care of an aged sultan. The young boy had to study with a Greek tutor supplied by the sultan. After a year, news arrived that his father’s caravan was attacked and that there were no survivors. He grows up as a warrior, studying under the sultan’s army leaders and learning the art of war. He thrives on the stories of the Greek heroes of old. As a young soldier, he is given responsibility to secure the sultan’s trade routes. Herein lies a story of a young boy, lost youths, and strategic battle plans all the while being faithful to his surrogate father, the sultan. Historically, he wants to regain the throne for his sultan. His adventure begins.
