Stephen Graham
Stephen Graham (1884–1975) was a British travel writer and essayist, known for his vivid accounts of Russia and Eastern Europe. His notable works include "A Vagabond in the Caucasus" (1911) and "Through Russian Central Asia" (1916), where he detailed his extensive travels through the region. Graham's writing often focused on the lives of ordinary people, spirituality, and the contrast between Western and Eastern cultures. He also explored themes of solitude and nature, as seen in "The Gentle Art of Tramping" (1926), which has become a classic in outdoor and travel literature.
