Summary "Van Pool tot Pool" by Sven Anders Hedin is a travelogue written in the late 19th century. This work recounts the extensive journeys taken by the author, highlighting the rich experiences and cultures encountered during his 75,000-kilometer trek across various continents, particularly from Europe through Asia and back. The book serves as a bridge between adventure and the celebration of memory, as the author reflects on his travels and aims to share these experiences with younger generations. At the start of the book, we are introduced to the traveler, who has dedicated a significant part of his life to exploring the vastness of Asia after an initial journey twenty-five years prior. He reflects on his journey with nostalgia while considering how to commemorate this milestone. Instead of a lonely celebration, he decides to invite young readers to accompany him on a figurative journey from "pole to pole," allowing them to follow his adventures through lands such as Persia, India, and Tibet—places rich with history and wonder. The opening sets the stage for a vivid and descriptive travel experience, blending personal reflection with the invitation to explore the author's past adventures.
