“Capture by the Tibetan Authorities, Imprisonment, Torture, and Ultimate Release”
xx, 320; xvi, 263 pages with large folding map of south-western Tibet, photogravure frontispiece of the author, 250 illustrations (coloured plates, full-page plates, text illustrations), tissue guards.
“In this book I have set down the record of a journey in Tibet undertaken by me during the spring, summer and autumn of 1897. It is illustrated partly from my photographs and partly from sketches made by me on the spot. Only as regards the torture scenes have I had to draw from memory, but it will be easily conceded that their impression must be vivid enough with me. The map is made entirely from my surveys of an area of twelve thousand five hundred square miles in Tibet proper.”
