SUMMARY
The British military and political expedition which, under the command of Francis Younghusband, entered Lhasa, the capital of Tibet, in August 1904, marked the culmination of Britain's attempts, over 140 years, to establish good relations with Tibet. A treaty was signed but, in 1910, Tibet was invaded by China. This book, first published in the year of the Chinese invasion, is Younghusband's own account of the expedition, its nature, and the profound consequences of its repudiation.Younghusband, Francis Edward is the author of 'India and Tibet (Oxford in Asia Hardback Reprints)', published 1985 under ISBN 9780195839722 and ISBN 0195839722.
