Excerpt from The Exploration of Tibet: Its History and Particulars From 1623 to 1904 Tibet, in area some square miles, extend ing through 22 degrees of longitude and occupying from north to south on an average some 6 degrees of latitude, has only within the last 35 years been brought under the domain of definite geographical knowledge. A few isolated attempts to ascertain its physical fea tures had been made from time to time during the preceding years; but systematic exploration and the assimilation of the facts discovered throughout the entire territory belong to the present generation. The gradual elucidation of the geography and physio graphy of this unknown and forbidden region, under unexampled difficulties both natural and political, forms an interesting and even bewitching story. Ti bet onoe so mysterious in all its characteristics is being rapidly unravelled. Much has been revealed, though exploration and travel have still a good deal of work yet to do in a land from which we are still in a large measure shut out.
