During the last century, men of many nationalities have played what they and their contemporaries have called \"The Great Game\" - travelling throughout Central Asia. The author revives memories of the agents and travellers - official and unofficial, military and civilian - who have visited the Khanates of Turkestan, relating their adventures and attempting to recreate the atmosphere and flavour of the region. Extremely well written, Fitzroy Maclean captures a way of life that is fast disappearing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45082263486615,"sku":"9781448205240","price":2223.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781448205240.webp?v=1767263121","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/a-person-from-england-9781448205240","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
