Anmerkung: | Im Vorwort: "This book tells the story of the unveiling and subsequent destruction of the old Tibet. It is compiled almost entirely from the words and pictures of some of those very few outsiders who visited Lhasa in the first half of this century. These are: Hugh Richardson (1936-1950), Heinrich Harrer (1946-1950 & 1982), Dr. Shen Tsung-Lien (1944-1948), Freddy Spencer Chapman (1936), Dr. James Guthrie (1936 & 1946), Sir Basil Gould (1936 & 1940), Sir Charles Bell (1920), Edmund Candler and members of the Younghusband Mission to Lhasa (1904)." |
