Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pioneering in Tibet I do remember, however, our arrival in Kansas, when my father, who had gone through in a wagon, came down to meet my mother and us two children. Fred was then just a baby. We lived near Pawnee, in Bourbon County, where I first started to school. After two years there we moved out to Harper County, down by Ruella, where we lived for some five years. During these years I went to school to different teachers. The first school which I attended was taught by one of the home girls, who was only about sixteen years old. She had in school five or six boys who were about ten or eleven years old and who, knowing her so well, were rather hard to control. One day she had told us we were not to go near the creek, which was near the schoolhouse, but five of us slipped off and went in swimming. Time passed very much more rapidly than we had thought during the noon hour, and the first intimation that it was over was seeing her standing on a little rise about one hundred yards from the creek and ringing the bell.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Opening of Tibet For us the door was Opened, and though it has now again been locked as grimly as before, at least for many months we have lived in the very heart Of the real Tibet. The course Of our expedition lay through no deserted wastes Of sand, through which a stealthy or disguised European creeps painfully from water-hole to water hole, avoiding the least Sign Of man or human habitation, learning little and caring to learn less Of the people from whose notice he is Shrinking. We have 'moved through the only populous and politically important districts Of the country, we have made our stay in the centers Of Tibetan life, and Of necessity we were brought into immediate Contact with that. Mysterious government and religion upon which no other European transgressor into the forbidden land has been able to throw the light of personal knowledge. It has been but a passing chance, but perhaps for that very reason the more interest attaches to the simplest account Of men and places upon which the curtain has again impenetrably fallen.
