The first account of his journey was published in 1858 in "Oriental and Western Siberia: A narrative of seven years exploration." The substance of his travel and exploration in the 1850’s on the frontiers of Russia and China that included Siberia, the river Amur, and the Lakes Balkash and Baikal: then known as the Krighis steppes.

About the Author:-Thomas Witlam Atkinson was an English architect, artist and traveller in Siberia and Central Asia. Between 1847 and 1853 he travelled over 40,000 miles through Central Asia and Siberia, much of the time together with his wife Lucy and son Alatau, who was born during their travels. He also painted and documented his travels in two books that are today regarded as travel classics. By the time he was twenty he was a stone-carver, and in that capacity executed some good work on churches at Barnsley, Ashton-Under-Lyne and elsewhere. At the last-named town he settled for a while as a teacher of drawing. Soon after he became clerk of works to a string of important Victorian architects, including George Basevi, who designed much of Belgrave Square in London. About this time he devoted himself to the study of Gothic architecture, and in 1829 published a folio volume entitled Gothic Ornaments selected from the different Cathedrals and Churches in England.
