Book excerpt: Excerpt from On India's Frontier: Or Nepal, the Gurkhas' Mysterious Land As long ago as Sir John Lawrence's time, and since then more zealously and jealously maintained, there has been mapped out by England, under the supervision Of the India Government, a Neutral Belt, with the Himalaya Mountains for its southern base, and extend ing up northwardly, comprising vast stretches Of little known, and most Of it quite unknown, territory, divided up among independent tribes more or less hostile to each other. These tribes are furnished with arms and ammunition, in certain cases to a large extent, by the India Government, and are left to act as they please, so long as they do not meddle with British territory. They constitute what are known as the Buffer States and are used, one and all, as a breakwater against the ever-threatening flood of Russian invasion from the far north.

Excerpt: ... 183 having- for a good share of its roof a thriving pumpkin vine. This placo we carpeted with rice straw, and here we passed the night, feeling: is comfortable as a prince in his palace. On the following day we reached the pleasant bungalow of an Indigo planter at Ruck soul, just inside of British territory, and were freely offered every hospitality, even his wellstocked stable being placed at our disposal. That same night we pushed on and reached Segowli Railway Station, expecting to make ourselves comfortable there with our bedding sent on ahead by the kind forethought of our planter host. In this, however, we were doomed to disappointment, as our coolies had concluded to ensure for themselves first a good night's rest somewhere on the road, no matter what became of us, and did not turn up till noon of the following day! We had therefore to arrange ourselves on some chairs in the railway waiting-room. The night proved far too cold for our ordinary light clothing, so we placed lanterns under our chairs and spread over us several large newspapers, as wraps, thereby securing enough warmth from our improvised stove and paper covering to weather the night through fairly well. It was pleasant to hear again the screech of the engine, the rattle of the car wheels, and to feel ourselves being whirled along behind steam once more. And thus it was while being borne back to India's capital, seated in a comfortable railway carriage that we had time to go over the diiferent incidents of our eventful journey and came to the conclusion, in accordance with the thought suggested at the outset of this narrative that all travel had not yet lost its romance. On our arrival at Calcutta* we were con * The following appeared in one of the Calcutta dailies (he...

Download or read book Britain and Tibet 1765 1947 written by Julie G. Marshall and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 658 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bibliography is a record of British relations with Tibet in the period 1765 to 1947. As such it also involves British relations with Russia and China, and with the Himalayan states of Ladakh, Lahul and Spiti, Kumaon and Garhwal, Nepal, Sikkim, Bhutan and Assam, in so far as British policy towards these states was affected by her desire to establish relations with Tibet. It also covers a subject of some importance in contemporary diplomacy. It was the legacy of unresolved problems concerning Tibet and its borders, bequeathed to India by Britain in 1947, which led to border disputes and ultimately to war between India and China in 1962. These borders are still in dispute today. It also provides background information to Tibet's claims to independence, an issue of current importance. The work is divided into a number of sections and subsections, based on chronology, geography and events. The introductions to each of the sections provide a condensed and informative history of the period and place the books and article in their historical context. Most entries are also annotated. This work is therefore both a history and a bibliography of the subject, and provides a rapid entry into a complex area for scholars in the fields of international relations and military history as well as Asian history.
