London England: Rupert Hart-Davis, 1954. Hardback Translated from the German by Richard Graves. Introduction by Peter Fleming.

Since then many years have passed, but I have never been able to cut loose from Asia. How all this came about, and what it led to, I shall try to describe in this book, and as I have no experience as an author I shall content myself with the unadorned facts book very good.
