A Journey Through Kham and Shangri-La

Travel writer and novelist Lawrence Osborne travels through Yunnan and Sichuan, in the former Tibetan land of Kham, in search of the legendary botanist and maverick Joseph Rock, whose explorations of the remote kingdoms of western China inspired the myth of Shangri-la. Traveling with Lhamio, his drunken Tibetan guide, Osborne explores the city of Lijiang, the remote lake of the Mosuo free-love women at Lugu Hu, the forlorn city of "Shangri-la" and the
birthplace of the Seventh Dalai Lama at Litang.

Originally published by Adelphi in Milan, this is a longer English version written for Kindle.
