In this remarkable, and ultimately tragic narrative, Peter Hopkirk recounts the forcible opening up of this medieval land during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and the extraordinary race between agents, soldiers, missionaries, mountaineers, explorers, and mystics from nine different countries to reach Lhasa, Tibet's sacred capital. His story concludes with the ultimate act of trespass - the Chinese invasion of 1950.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Hopkirk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53097188163808,"sku":"9780192802057","price":121.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/5681\/6608\/files\/51jnqilcfaL.jpg?v=1781684086","url":"https:\/\/medicalbook.online\/products\/trespassers-on-the-roof-of-the-world","provider":"medicalbook.online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
