The 



Opening of 



Tibet 



By Perceval Landon 



Introduction by 

 Colonel Younghusband 



COLONEL YOUNGHUSBAND 

 Commander of the British Expedition into Lhasa 



The New York Globe says : 



The Opening of Tibet ' should 

 take place with such books as Stanley's 

 ' In Darkest Africa ' and Nansen's 

 'Farthest North ' — books which, while 

 of the greatest historical importance, 

 yet, because so filled with the romance 

 and mystery and thrill of the unknown, 

 fire the popular imagination and are of 

 the liveliest general interest- 

 All the exuberance of adjectival praise 

 usually reserved for the latest novel 

 alone might with great appropriateness 

 be applied toj Mr. Landon's volume, 

 which is of absorbing interest from the 

 first page to the last." 



Fifty remarkable photographs 

 by the author.
