‎One of the scarcest of the author's books, and one of the few of his works never reprinted. The author, one of the most famous plant hunters and explorers of the twentieth century, travelled in 1922 and 1923 westward from the Yangtze, across the strip where the great rivers of South-east Asia escape from Tibet and through the jungles at the headwaters of the Irrawaddy River of Burma. Besides describing the geography and the peoples of the area, he describes the natural history, and especially the plants. YAKUSHI K74 ‎
