A Journey Through Extraordinary Mountains And Human Lives
Very Good Condition - Hardcover with dust jacket. Clean jacket with only light edge rubbing. Charity shop barcode sticker on back of jacket.
Michael Palin travels through the Himalayan region, following a journey from the Khyber Pass towards the Bay of Bengal. Accompanying his BBC television series, this illustrated travel account combines the drama of the mountains with encounters with the people who live among them. Religious traditions, daily work, hospitality and the pressures of change sit alongside the practical challenges and unexpected pleasures of the journey. Palin brings curiosity and humour to a region whose extraordinary landscapes are matched by its cultural variety. Photographs accompany his observations, giving readers a sense of both the scale of the terrain and the personal exchanges that make the adventure memorable.
