In the footsteps of Joseph Rock
« on: November 10, 2012, 03:40:18 PM »
Thought this may be of interest to some, a site i came across while perusing for images of tibetan bandits. It details in part the trip by Botanist Joseph Rock to the Kingdom of Muli, nominally part of the Chinese province of Sikang in 1924.
The site has excellent images of local Tibetan types, buildings and soldiers....enjoy :)

I tried downloading his draft from Scribd (which I'd never used before), which I logged-onto using Facebook, but Scribd kept on loading its main page and refreshing it, making it impossible to navigate - any ideas?   ::)

Thanks in advance!
