India and Tibet
The book India and Tibet by great military adventurer and explorer Younghusband examines Indian government relations with Tibet from 1774 to 1910.
What was the attitude of China? How Russian government reacted? Why The Dalai Lama visited viceroy in Calcutta? What was the result of the mission?
This book is immensely useful to understand the Tibetan problem in proper historical perspective.
The appendix on Anglo-Chinese Convention 1890, Trade Regulation 1893, Anglo-Tibetan Convention 1904, Anglo-Chinese Convention 1906 and Anglo-Russian Convention 1907 with an exhaustive index make the book extremely useful for policy makers and all those doing further in-depth studies on this subject of vital importance.
