| Summary | "Im Sattel durch Zentralasien: 6000 Kilometer in 176 Tagen" by Erich von Salzmann is a travelogue written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the author's adventurous journey through Central Asia, highlighting his experiences during a long trek on horseback across diverse and challenging landscapes. It offers insights into the author's personal encounters, the geographical and cultural aspects he observes, and particularly focuses on the relationship between man and horse in such demanding conditions. The opening of the narrative sets the scene for a significant journey the author is about to embark on, departing from Tientsin with the goal of riding back home through Central Asia. He describes the meticulous preparations for his trip, including learning the Chinese language and acquiring the necessary permits. Accompanied by his loyal Chinese servant Mafu and a group of carefully trained ponies, the author shares initial concerns about the journey ahead, the conditions in which they would travel, and the challenges posed by local customs and weather variations. Starting on 25 September 1902, he begins his travels through the snowy mountains and deserts, promising tales of adventure and discovery throughout the narrative.
