The TIMES says: "We confidently commend the scholarly and delightful work which Col.

Waddell has written The volume now before us, rich in information and instinct with literary

charm, could only have been produced by one who knew the language and customs of Tibet It is

sometimes asked whether any tangible result has been secured by the expedition to Lhasa. There are, of course, results, and among them may be mentioned this charming work. All may find advantage in ita perusal. It is a mine of quaint folk-lore, of philology, and natural history ; and the descriptions of scenery are delightful. The value of the work is enhanced by the most useful and tj pical photographs."
