Book Synopsis
The Silk Road served to connect the diverse geographies and populations of China, the Eurasian Steppe, Central Asia, India, Western Asia, and Europe. The majority of the Silk Road routes passed through the Eurasian Steppe. This book looks at the history of this crucial area before the formal establishment of Silk Road trade and diplomacy.
