No other land has captured man`s imagination quite like Tibet. Hidden away behind the highest mountains on earth, & ruled over by a mysterious God-king, it was for centuries a land forbidden to all outsiders. In this remarkable & ultimately tragic narrative, Peter Hopkirk recounts the forcible opening up of this medieval Buddhist kingdom by inquisitive Western travellers during the nineteenth & twentieth centuries, & the race to reach Lhasa, Tibet`s sacred capital. This epic, often harrowing tale, which ends with the Chinese invasion of 1950, draws on a colourful cast of gatecrashers from nine different countries. Among them were adventurous young officers on Great Game missions, explorers & mountaineers, mystics & missionaries. All took their lives in their hands, including three intrepid women. Some were never to return. ...
