[rating:4/5]

While this book was a bit dry, it did paint a fascinating story about the Nazis’ sick quest to justify their bigoted beliefs through expeditions into Tibet. While the story takes place during the 1930’s, the characters and plot weave a convoluted tale into events that actually happened. The book appears to be very well researched and describes the roles of British, German, American, and others who were clearly looking out for their own interests without regard to those of the Tibetans.
