To Lhasa in Disguise

Rating:
Summary: Amazing journey by a truly great man
Review: Professor McGovern was a great man who lived the life that many men only dream about. He had the chance to travel into Tibet as a coolie speaking Tibetan like a native. His command of the minute details of every day Tibetan life and language were fantastic. This book is a must read for anyone traveling to Tibet today or who is interested in a fun, fast-read adventure book. I can still see him discussing his adventures in class. As great as book this is, he was a far greater lecturer and an even greater man.
