STROLLING ABOUT ON THE
ROOF OF THE WORLD
This volume covers the first one hundred years of the Royal Society for Asian Affairs,
formerly the Royal Central Asian Society. It traces its fons et origo within the Central
Asian Question, and continues through the two World Wars to the present day.
Throughout its pages are glimpses and vignettes of some of its extraordinary, even
eccentric, members and their astonishing adventures. The wealth of historic, and often
amusing, detail makes it a lively account. With its considerable factual content it will
become a work of reference for all interested in Asia. This book is generously illustrated
and includes many of the Society’s unique archival photographs not previously published.
