Excerpt from Western Tibet and the British Borderland: The Sacred Country of Hindus and Buddhists At a time like the present when, owing to freer access to the country, books on Tibet are becoming multiplied and the reading public is beginning to appreciate the homely truth which tells us that "of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh," it is not too much to say that the general information on matters Tibetan is wonderfully advanced in comparison with what it was even five years ago. In fact, so far have matters gone along the whole line of Tibetan exploration, that the public expects nowadays something which is decidedly new and distinctly additional to what has already been so ably put before it by writers in the past. It is therefore to a more highly enlightened and more exacting reader that an author has nowadays to address himself, and year by year the task will become more difficult. What has been the charm of the past is not to the same extent the charm of the present: what was once novel in the paucity of literature has now become familiar owing to the numerous books lately published which have become the classics of Tibetan research.

Excerpt from Western Tibet and the British Borderland: The Sacred Country of Hindus and Buddhists I would also mention that there is an account of a climb on the highest mountain in Western Tibet by Dr. T. G. Longstaff, and (although I am wholly ignorant of mountaineering myself) I think I may venture to say that this description of a climb with Alpine guides should prove of extreme interest to all mountaineers and all good sportsmen, who are capable of appreciating pluck and endurance, while the fact that the climbers reached an altitude which is amongst the highest ever hitherto attained adds an additional zest to the tale. This is the first occasion on which a Tibetan mountain has been attacked according to approved modern methods.
