A Living History
The Silk Road: A Living History is a vibrant visual journey from renowned travel photographer and writer Christopher Wilton-Steer, allowing readers to explore the cities, landscapes, and communities along the storied Silk Road with the turn of a page.
In 2019, Wilton-Steer left London for the trip of a lifetime. Armed with his camera, he followed the historic trade route from one end of Eurasia to the other, traversing 16 countries between England and China. As he zigzagged over 40,000 kilometers, crossing borders via car, bus, train, ferry, horse, and camel, his lens captured the essence of the Silk Road, from the Renaissance masterpieces of Venice to the bustling bazaars of Iran and the serene landscapes of Kyrgyzstan.
The resulting collection of 160 photographs offers an intimate glimpse into the richness of cultures and the enduring legacy of connectivity that define the legendary trade network. Featuring thoughtful essays by the photographer and a preface by Oxford historian and bestselling author Peter Frankopan, The Silk Road: A Living History tells the story of one journey across Eurasia. It is a celebration of diversity, the traditional practices and customs that live on today, and the flourishing connections that endure along this historical, human network.
‘I first became interested in the Silk Roads four decades ago. It gives me enormous pleasure that there are more and more ‘Silk Roaders’ today than there were when I was starting out. So to all who read this lovely book: I hope you enjoy it as much as I have. And welcome to our ranks!’
