Offbeat in Asia: A Journey Along the Russian Frontier

The blurb for this book reads:

Michael Alexander attracts unconventional adventure.In company with one of London's most beautiful model girls, as venturous as himself, he recently drove eighteen thousand miles through Turkey, Persia and Afghanistan along routes rarely travelled by westerners, with the forbidding ploughed strip that marked the Russian frontier seldom far away.He has written a fast-moving personal narrative refreshingly uncluttered with classical allusions and historical references.
