Caucasian Journey

Caucasian Journey is a travel book written by the American foreign correspondent Negley Farson, describing his journey in the mountains of the western Caucasus in 1929.^[1][2] Farson undertook the journey in the company of Alexander Wicksteed, a writer and adventurer. It was not until two decades after their expedition that Farson sat down with his notes in order to write the book. Initially published by Evans Brothers in 1951, it was reissued by Penguin Books in 1988 under the Penguin Travel Library imprint.

Colin Thubron described the book as a classic, calling it "the record of an unrepeatable journey - adventurous, wry and robustly evocative."
