Books, Manuscripts
In 1895, a 43 year-old Englishman and his 55 year-old wife confronted 150 armed Tibetans 48 miles from Lhasa. The explorers, Teresa and St. George Littledale, had journeyed further into Asia than any before them, yet today their exploits have been largely forgotten. This book explores the Littledales' remarkable lives.
