This is Ekai Kawaguchi's account of his legendary solo trip, beginning in 1899, through a Tibet long hostile to all outside visitors. Disguised sometimes as a Chinese doctor and at others as a native Tibetan, this Japanese monk managed to traverse practically the entire length of Tibet - largely on foot - a feat of outstanding courage and endurance, as well as good fortune. However, the real value of the account is the author's careful and detailed observations of Tibet, Tibetans and the rule of the 13th Dalai Lama, whom he met a number of times. Kawaguchi was both awed by the Tibetans' religious devotion and knowledge and shocked by some of the cruelty, corruption and sexual licence he saw around him.
