The opening of Tibet : an account of Lhasa and the country and people of central Tibet and of the progress of the mission sent there by the English government in the year 1903-4
An account of Lhasa, the country and people of central Tibet, and the British mission of 1903-4, written by Perceval Landon and published in New York by Doubleday, Page & Co. in 1905 as a travel book for general readers. The pictures are sepia photographic plates with printed captions, showing monastery roofs on a hillside, a column of riders on a dusty road, and a military camp of tents pitched among rocky slopes, useful to a designer wanting rugged high-altitude and expedition imagery.
