LANDS
OF THE THUNDERBOLT SIKHIM CHUMBI & BHUTAN - LORD RANALDSHAY
RATING:
C
This
book covers various aspects of Buddhism, albeit seen only through
Theravada preferring eyes, along with intriguing botanically detailed
travel notations. Written in the early 20th century, in can be read
for its historical value as well as from its travel and botany
aspects.
I would recommend the
book to those interested in early 20th C history, botanical
descriptions of Himalayan countries, and travel, as well as those
interested in viewing Himalayan culture through Western eyes.
