This captivating account details their extraordinary travels through Turkey, Persia, Turkestan, and northern China, regions largely untouched by outsiders. Their adventures include a thrilling ascent of Mount Ararat (where they, unfortunately, did not discover an ark) and a memorable encounter with the then Chinese Prime Minister.
