"400 copies were printed by Phelps/Schaefer Litho Graphics Company for Nicholas and Elizabeth Clinch on the occasion of the twenty-second Biennial Joint Meeting of the Zamorano and Roxburghe Clubs, October 8,9, 1994." 31 pp., 5 illustrations, 3 folding maps in rear flap. Introduction by Nicholas and Elizabeth Clinch. A fine production in card wraps, title label laid down on front cover. Fine condition.

'Every one of their journeys would now be considered an accomplishment of note' said Francis Younghusband. On 4 August 1895, at a 19,000 ft pass on the north side of Goring La in Tibet, only 48 miles from Lhasa, a 43-year-old Englishman, his 55-year-old wife and a fox terrier confronted over 150 Tibetans armed with primitive matchlocks.

The Englishman was St George Littledale. His wife, Teresa, had shared in all of his adventures. In the nineteenth century, Teresa and George Littledale were known as the greatest English explorers of their day, journeying further into the hidden lands of Asia than any Western explorer had previously achieved.
