This is a gripping tale of life in a remote Tibetan valley, in 1950 just before the Chinese invasion. It is an extraordinary tale of adventure as the expedition tries to find a way out through the high mountain passes to India to reach more supplies. Bridges and banditry, filth and food, tea and tribulation, chocolate and cockroaches, eggs and ecstasy, civilisation or lack of it...All topics he discusses with a vivid sense of humour.
