Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an early 20th-century travelogue written by a German geographer detailing his harrowing journey through the unexplored Salween and Mekong river basins of Southeast Asia. The author's exploration began in China, traversing through some of the most rugged terrain in the world at the time. He traveled independently with a group of local porters and animal handlers, from whom he acquired valuable cultural and scientific knowledge. The book has beautiful and detailed descriptions of the landscape, plants, and animals seen on his journey as well as the day-to-day lives of the indigenous hill tribes he encountered along the way. Most significantly, the author made critical scientific observations concerning the geographic origins of these rivers, settling long-standing scientific debates and redrawing the contemporary maps of the area. This book will be of great interest to the general reader with an interest in travel and exploration accounts and of particular interest to historians and geographers with deep knowledge of the area. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
