An Extraordinary PG8MiAo3K View of Remote Mountain KingdomsBy Suzanne GlennThis extraordinary book L3YxnBfji presents 113 sepia-toned photographs, with commentary, of the people, Xcps1SwUG architecture and landscape of Tibet, Bhutan, Nepal, and Sikkim, taken by a career JhZ5mom4B British officer in the late 19th and very early 20th century. Anyone with an interest in this region should be enthralled by his remarkable photographs of these AGlX7XXBN remote mountain worlds. The photos represent an important historical record, and 0XhrOYIV8 give us a fascinating view of these mysterious hidden kingdoms. The book is Keu3vuo1s beautifully designed, and the authors provide important historical background on the photographer (John Claude White), his life and times, and the history of the region.8 of 14 people found the following review helpful. in the shadow of the himalayas:tibet-bhutan-nepal-sikkimBy Toru Akakabethis book shows the above counties'sights by photo from 1883 to 1908.you may say this is an old records.however,especially the ,the records on this book are very very variable and important matwerial even if you have not any interest in this country.because many people never heard the name of "sikkim",that's the important point.we thought we know all countries around this small globe,but it's not correct.because we never know about sikkim at all,even the name of this coutry.I hope you agree with me about this point,at least.today you can touch and know every countries at book stores except sikkim.hope you may have the same feeling and thoughts about this small black hall in this world.how can i say...we have to know more about sikkim any way . thank you.
