Excerpt from Mount Omi and Beyond: A Record of Travel on the Thibetan Border, With Map and IllustrationsIN publishing an account of what might almost be called A Walking Tour on the Thibetan Border, I tender no addition to the records of geographical exploration, but simply a picture of China as it exists far removed from Western influence - a China which must ere long pass away as old Japan has done, though with slower steps. Many travellers have passed through the country on their way to and from Thibet, but few have lingered over the Chinese portion as we did, and none have travelled precisely the same route.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
