Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1897 Henry Savage Landor headed north from Bombay, India into uncharted territory to explore the magnificent mountains and wild glacial rivers of Tibet, trying to reach the Providence of Lhassa deep into the Forbidden Land without the benefit of maps, or previous knowledge of history or local customs. Accompanied by a few coolies, hired locally, carrying the best photographic and scientific equipment money could buy, he went off onto what was to be the adventure of a lifetime. He battled with gangs of trail robbers, exchanged gunfire with the Tibetans and fell prisoner of the local warlords, all while charting and mapping the territory, taking photographs and recording scientific observations. This book was last published in 1910. This is a reprint for those who enjoy reading adventures of yesteryears.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Trans-Himalaya, Vol. 1 of 2: Discoveries and Adventures in Tibet IN the first place I desire to pay homage to the memory of my patron, King Oscar of Sweden, by a few words of gratitude. The late King showed as warm and intelligent an interest in my plan for a new expedition as he had on former occasions, and assisted in the fulfilment of my project with much-increased liberality. I estimated the cost of the journey at kronor (about and this sum was subscribed within a week by my old friend Emmanuel Nobel, and my patrons, Frederik Lowenadler, Oscar Ekman, Robert Dickson, William Olsson, and Henry Ruffer, banker in London. I cannot adequately express my thanks to these gentlemen. In consequence of the political difficulties I encountered in India, which forced me to make wide detours, the expenses were increased by about kronor but this sum I was able to draw from my own resources.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Exploration of Tibet: Its History and Particulars From 1623 to 1904 Tibet, in area some square miles, extend ing through 22 degrees of longitude and occupying from north to south on an average some 6 degrees of latitude, has only within the last 35 years been brought under the domain of definite geographical knowledge. A few isolated attempts to ascertain its physical fea tures had been made from time to time during the preceding years; but systematic exploration and the assimilation of the facts discovered throughout the entire territory belong to the present generation. The gradual elucidation of the geography and physio graphy of this unknown and forbidden region, under unexampled difficulties both natural and political, forms an interesting and even bewitching story. Ti bet onoe so mysterious in all its characteristics is being rapidly unravelled. Much has been revealed, though exploration and travel have still a good deal of work yet to do in a land from which we are still in a large measure shut out.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Plateau: Being an Account of Exploration in Central Tibet, 1903, and of the Gartok Expedition, 1904-1905 In the following pages I have endeavoured to lay before the reader an account of two journeys undertaken in Tibet, in districts situated many hundreds of miles apart and under diametrically opposite conditions. The first expedition penetrated into the interior of the uninhabited and barren regions of the Northern Desert at a time when Tibet was rigidly closed to foreigners. The second led through the rich and thickly populated valleys of the Brahmaputra, and was made with the cognisance and permission of the Lhasa Government, though only rendered possible by the notable success of Sir Francis Younghusband's Mission. The natural obstacles inseparable from exploration in Tibet are so varied and numerous, that but little progress would be made were it not for the aid given by those who are interested in travel and who are willing to render every assistance in their power. I therefore take this opportunity of tendering my thanks to all who have contributed to the success of the journeys here described, and more particularly to Colonel St. G. Gore, R.E., Mr. J. Eccles, and the Officers of the Survey of India; Major M. Ray, D.S.O., Intelligence Branch; and Sir Clements Markham, K.C.B., and the Council of the Royal Geographical Society.

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.
