Summary This masterfully illustrated travelogue takes the reader on a journey deep into the heart of Tibet and Tibetan culture through the eyes of Englishmen. Experience early 19th-century life amongst the Tibetan people and read a thrilling account of the capture and imprisonment of missionaries by Tibetan lamas. Although this travelogue is decidedly ethnocentric in the author’s description of the Tibetan people, it remains an important piece of colonial world history.
