Book Description
About the Book: Himalaya : Exploring the Roof of the World
History has not been kind to Himalaya. Empires have collided here, cultures have
clashed. Buddhist India claimed it from the south, Islam put down roots in its
western approaches, Mongols and Manchus rode in from the north, and, from the
east, China continues to absorb what it prefers not to call Tibet. Hunters have
decimated its wildlife and mountaineers have bagged its peaks. Today, machinery
gouges minerals out of its rock.
Roughly the size of Europe, the region is one of the most seismically active on
the planet. Summers bring avalanches, rainfall triggers landslides and winters
obliterate
