Title: The British Empire & Tibet 1900 - 1922
Description: "In August 1904 Sir Francis Younghusband's invasion force reached the forbidden city of Lhasa. The British invasion of Tibet in 1903 acted as a catalyst for change in a world transformed by revolution, war and the rise of a new order." "Using official government sources, private papers and the diaries and memoirs of those involved, this book examines the impact of Younghusband's invasion and its aftermath inside Tibet and in the context of Britain's wider Asian policy against a background of dramatic international change."--BOOK JACKET.
