The Ibex of Sha-Ping and Other Himalayan Studies is a book written by Lionel Bickersteth Rundall and published in 1915. The book is a collection of essays and stories about Rundall’s experiences in the Himalayan region, particularly in the areas of Sha-Ping and Ladakh. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of life in the Himalayas. Rundall writes about the local people, their customs, and their way of life. He also describes the flora and fauna of the region, including the elusive ibex, which he hunted during his travels. In addition to his observations of the natural world, Rundall also writes about the political situation in the region. He discusses the tensions between the British colonial authorities and the local rulers, as well as the impact of modernization on the traditional way of life in the Himalayas. Overall, The Ibex of Sha-Ping and Other Himalayan Studies provides a fascinating glimpse into life in the Himalayan region during the early 20th century. Rundall’s vivid descriptions and engaging storytelling make this book a must-read for anyone interested in the history and culture of this unique part of the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
