Publisher Description: The English writer Mrs. Bishop (aka Isabella L. Bird) was a household name in the 19th century, and one of the great female explorers of all time. This book is a fascinating chronicle of her travels in Tibet, which at the time was still seen by Europeans as a mysterious, semi-mythical land. |
