This book was released on 2017-10-15 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Attraction of the Himalaya Mountains Upon the Plumb-Line in India A sense of loyalty to General Walker renders criticism of his theories an unwelcome task such criticism can only be based on data, that were never at his disposal and that have been accumulated since his death. In 1896, a few months before his death, a paper by General Walker, containing a masterly summary of Indian geodetic work, was issued by the Royal Society in 113 paper General Walker advocated the adoption of groups of astronomical stations for the purpose of eliminating the effects of local attraction he also in it explained certain perplexing phenomena by assuming the existence of a southerly deflection at Kalianpur, the station of reference of the Indian Survey. In 1898 In consequence of this paper and In full accord with General Walker's views, we threw a group of astronomical stations round Kalianpur: their results showed that the deflection at Kalianpur due to local attraction was northerly: this unexpect ed issue created a dilemma: either General Walker had been mistaken in advocating groups, or his assumption of a southerly deflection at Kalianpur had been incorrect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Among the Himalayas The grandest part of the grandest mountains on the globe has, strange to say, no book devoted to it, except one that was written about half a century ago. Since that time, however, these lofty regions, on the rugged borders of Tibet, have become much more accessible. Roads have penetrated the mountain fastnesses in nearly every direction in the state of Sikhim, a Switzerland of the East, situated in the heart of the Himalayas, within sight of the culminating pinnacle of the world, Mount Everest. The worst torrents have been bridged, and travellers staging-houses have been erected along some of the chief routes, thus facilitating the exploration of these mighty mountains, and creating a desire for further and more general information in regard to them and their quaint Tartar tribes, than is to be found in Hooker's Journals. Having visited many of the less frequented parts, and possessing an intimate knowledge of the social and political state of most of the primitive tribes, I venture to hope that some account of my travels may contribute to the supply of this want. During the past fourteen years I have traversed portions of this region nearly every year, sketching, shooting, collecting, and especially exploring the customs of the people on the frontiers of Tibet, and of Nepal - the land of the warlike Goorkhas - where I lived in tents for four or five months of several successive years.

This book was released on 2018-11-15 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Description of a View of the Himalaya Mountains With the British Stations of Kussowlee, Soobathoo, and Simla, and a Vast Extent of the Plains of Hindostan: Now Exhibiting at the Panorama, Leicester Square The Himalaya is a stupendous and magnificent chain of mountains in Asia, extending from the seventy-third degree of east longitude, along the north of Hindostan to the borders of China, separating Hindostan from Tibet and Tartary, and forming the general boundary of Tibet through its whole extent, from Cabul to Upper Assam. This vast chain was the Imaus and Emodus of the ancients, and was sometimes termed the Indian Caucasus the natives at present call it the Hindoo Koosh, or Indian mountains, as well as Himalaya, a sanscrit word, signifying snowy. On the side of Hindostan, the central part of the ridge rises rapidly from a level into sharp and precipitous clifi's, far exceeding the Andes in height, whilst the Tibet side falls gradually into green hills, and ends in sloping plains. The mountains, which vary from seventy to one hundred and eighty miles in breadth, run in irregular ridges of every imaginable shape, and are undivided by any valley of consequence from the one plain to the other. The various peaks of the snowy ridge seen, are estimated to be from to feet in height. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Western Himalaya and Tibet written by Thomas Thomson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-11 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Western Himalaya and Tibet: A Narrative of a Journey Through the Mountains of Northern India, During the Years 1847-8 For the plates which accompany the work I have to thank Mr. Winterbottom, who very kindly permitted me to select from a series of sketches those which I thought most suitable. This was not an easy task; but in the two views of the neighbourhood of Iskardo I found so faithful a representation of the extremely rugged scenery of the Tibetan mountains, contrasted with the level plain of Iskardo, and the lacustrine strata of the neighbourhood, that no more desirable illustra tions for a journey in Tibet could be conceived. The little vignette, too, though it does not represent any part of the country through which I travelled, is precisely similar to many ravines in Rondu, and serves to show that the Gilgit valley is quite the same in general appearance with that district. I was more particularly desirous of introducing this sketch, from the very faithful representation it contains of the alluvial platforms which skirt the streams in every part of Tibet.
