About the author

G. J. (George John) Younghusband

1859–1944

A British Indian Army officer, explorer, and prolific writer, he turned firsthand experience in Central Asia and the frontiers of empire into vivid books on travel, military life, and politics. His work blends observation, adventure, and the perspective of someone who spent years on the ground in places many of his readers would never see.
