He had crossed deserts nobody had mapped, and he could make it sound simple. Sven Hedin, the great Swedish explorer of central Asia, wrote this circuit of the world for young readers: the poles, the great rivers, the mountains, the empires, the ice. Geography told as adventure by a man who had personally been to the far end of a great deal of it.
