Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Travels in Tartary, Thibet, and China During the Years 1844-5-6" is a travel narrative written by Evariste Régis Huc, a French missionary and explorer. The book, first published in 1850, recounts Huc's journey through Central Asia and his experiences in Tibet and China during the mid-19th century. Huc, along with his fellow missionary Joseph Gabet, embarked on this expedition with the goal of reaching Lhasa, the capital of Tibet, and spreading Christianity in the region. The narrative provides a detailed account of their travels, encounters with various cultures, and the challenges they faced during their journey. Huc's writing reflects his observations of the landscapes, people, and customs of the places he visited. One of the notable aspects of the book is its descriptions of Tibetan Buddhism and the religious practices prevalent in Tibet. Huc's narrative also sheds light on the political and social conditions of the regions through which he traveled. The work is considered a valuable historical document, offering insights into the culture and geography of Central Asia and China during the 19th century. Keep in mind that while Huc's work provides a fascinating historical perspective, it's essential to approach it with an awareness of the cultural and religious biases of the time. Additionally, it's advisable to consult more recent and diverse sources for a comprehensive understanding of the regions discussed in the book.

Excerpt: ...days' journey brought them to the foot of lofty, cloud-topped mountains, which had to be scaled with painful toil both to man and beasts, the feet of the poor camels bleeding with the ruggedness of the ascent. The crest gained, showed at their base the Yellow River rolling its majestic current from south to north, and nightfall brought the travellers to its banks. The passage of the stream was more successful than on the former occasion: the ferrymen were less exacting, the camels less contrary, but--there always is a but--their dog had to be left behind, the boatmen insisting that dogs ought to be able to swim across, and not take up the room of their betters in the boat--an opinion in which we entirely coincide. They disembarked in China, leaving the desert and wandering life for a time behind them. CHAPTER V. IN AND OUT OF CHINA--LIFE IN A LAMASERY. HINA and civilization! at least, comparative civilization; for after crossing the turbid waters of the Hoang-ho, the travellers, instead of camping out, took up their quarters at an inn with the high-sounding name of the Hotel of Justice and Mercy. The title was prepossessing, and the host himself, though very much the reverse, was amiably anxious to recommend himself and his house--a new one--to his visitors, and to furnish them with such information as his extended acquaintance with men and things--he was an old soldier--had acquired for him. Provisions in this little Chinese town were both abundant and good; and they were to be got easily, which is more than can be said of some places nearer home. All manner of food, cooked and ready for the eating, was at all hours of the day to be had, and brought home to the traveller, at varying prices to suit both rich and poor. Some such plan as...
