Product Info Reviews

Description:

The Drung are an elusive people, forging an existence in the inhospitable Himalayan landscape of Tibet, a region intermittently opened and closed to travelers according to the whim of the Chinese government. For Wade Brackenbury, an American chiropractor and adventurer, meeting the Drung had been a lifelong ambition. In Yak Butter & Black Tea, Brackenbury recounts how he, a freelance photographer and a Chinese interpreter battled everyone from the Chinese Government to local tribes people to Mother Nature to meet the Drung; and how it wasn't until he set off on a dangerous solo expedition of his own that he achieved his goal.
