Gobi, Tracking the Desert by John Man |
John Man has become more and more obsessed with Mongolia, increasingly devoting his life to travel and historical research in that country. Here he finds several different 'Gobi deserts', and ranges from dinosaurs and everything pertaining to them and the riddle of their disappearance, through discussion of the various geological formations many millions of years old, up to the present with its motorbikes, its increasing pursuit of modernity threatening the survival of an unspoiled culture.
