I had very little money left and no means of transport at all.' Paul Nazaroff was the ringleader of a desperate plot to overthrow the Bolsheviks in Central Asia in 1918.

Thus began his extraordinary catalogue of adventures, 'a long and distant odyssey which would take me right across Central Asia ... over the Himalayas to the plains of Hindustan'.
