HIMALAYA by Michael Palin

Having risen to the challenge of seas, poles and deserts, Michael Palin takes us on a journey - with spectacular photographs - along the full length of the Himalaya, including the Khyber Pass, the hidden valleys of the Hindu Kush, ancient cities like Peshawar and Lahore, the mighty peaks of K2, Annapurna and Everest, to the roof of the world - the enigmatic Tibetan plateau.

Along the way he meets gunmakers, gives an elephant a bath, has a close shave with a 50p dentist, learns how to milk a yak and has an audience with the Dalai Lama.  As travelling companions go, Michael Palin is hard to beat.

Soft cover, fairly good condition.  A few pages of photographs are loose.
