| Summary | "Auf verbotenen Wegen: Reisen und Abenteuer in Tibet" by Arnold Henry Savage Landor is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book chronicles the author's adventurous journey to Tibet, showcasing both the beauty and challenges of the region as well as the cultural dynamics he encounters along the way. The opening of the book introduces the author’s preparations for his expedition, detailing the necessary logistics, equipment, and motivations for traveling through Tibet. Landor recounts his initial plans to enter Tibet via Russia, which changed due to unforeseen circumstances, leading him to set sail for India before navigating the treacherous Himalayan terrain. Describing his observations upon arriving in India, he notes the oppressive heat and the signs of plague, which set a stark backdrop for his journey. Landor introduces a key companion, Tschanden Sing, a former policeman who proves to be essential to his travels. This beginning establishes a blend of exploration, personal anecdote, and the preparatory challenges that will shape the narrative of this captivating adventure into the heart of Tibet.
