Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The halo of romance and the magic of the unknown which have for so long drawn the adventurous as by a magnet to the mysterious land of Tibet have now been in great part dissipated. Dr. Hedin was among the last travelers who penetrated into the Land of Snow trusting to their own resources alone. When the traveler of today enters Tibet, it will be under the protecting aegis of the modern civilization; but no reflection of the romantic will envelop him as he treads in all security the last hermit " kingdom " of the world, the revered Holy Land of Lamaism and the Sacred Books. This book has, however, nothing whatever to do with politics. It is simply the narrative of Hedin's journeys in that lofty region where the wild yak and the kulan browse amid the hailstorms and the driving sleets of summer. And if it teaches no other lesson, it will perhaps serve to remind the reader of the difference that exists between the life of activity spent among the powers of Nature and the sedentary and stationary life of the great city.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1897 Henry Savage Landor headed north from Bombay, India into uncharted territory to explore the magnificent mountains and wild glacial rivers of Tibet, trying to reach the Providence of Lhassa deep into the Forbidden Land without the benefit of maps, or previous knowledge of history or local customs. Accompanied by a few coolies, hired locally, carrying the best photographic and scientific equipment money could buy, he went off onto what was to be the adventure of a lifetime. He battled with gangs of trail robbers, exchanged gunfire with the Tibetans and fell prisoner of the local warlords, all while charting and mapping the territory, taking photographs and recording scientific observations. This book was last published in 1910. This is a reprint for those who enjoy reading adventures of yesteryears.

This book was released on 2023-03-09 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most important travel books ever written is the story of Dr. Sven Hedin's discoveries and adventures in Tibet, which he has brought out in two volumes under the general title "Trans-Himalaya." Besides being a closely woven, carefully prepared account of the achievements of a scientific explorer, geographer, and ethnologist, this work is an entertainingly told story of startling experiences, exciting adventures, and really remarkable achievements in the field of exploration. The expedition of this Swedish explorer started in August, 1906, entering the Forbidden Land from the northwest. He thoroughly explored the country, penetrating with the aid of his thirty-seven Asiatic followers into sections in which not only had no Western man ever trodden, but in which the existence, even, of Europe was unknown. Dr. Hedin's description of his meeting with the Tashi Lama shows that head of the Buddhist church to be not a divinity in human form but a man who in kindness of heart, innocence, and purity approaches as near as possible to perfection. This is volume one out of two.
