By the 1920s there were very few blanks left, and Buchan wanted to know who had filled them in. The novelist takes the last great geographical mysteries, Lhasa, the Brahmaputra gorges, the river sources, the poles and Everest, and tells how each was finally reached. Adventure writing by the man who wrote The Thirty Nine Steps, and it shows on every page.
