A Sketch of the Geography and Geology of the Himalaya Mountains and Tibet

Abstract

THE original edition of this work, which appeared in 1908, was intended to mark the centenary of the first expedition sent to the Himalaya by the Survey of India for geographical purposes, having for its immediate object the exploration of the source of the Ganges. After just a quarter of a century, a second edition has been brought out. During these twenty-five years a great deal of detailed exploration of the region has been accomplished and much new ground has been broken.
