Book Overview
Recently opened to foreign visitors, Tibet was, for much of its history, isolated and inaccessible. This isolation ended briefly with the Younghusband Mission to Lhasa of 1903-4--a move in the "Great Game" between Russia and England that was designed to lay the foundation for Anglo-Tibetan friendship. This is the intriguing account of this bizarre episode in British imperial history and the colonel who was its hero.
