Synopsis
Of the numerous Himalayan kingdoms and princely states that survived until the British left India, only two - Nepal and Bhutan - are now fully-fledged sovereign states. The others have been annexed or otherwise 'integrated' into their larger neighbours. Yet in many cases, the royal family survives and remains the focus of local traditions and loyalties. Jonathan Gregson has travelled widely throughout the Himalayan region, to Bhutan, Nepal, Sikkim, Mustang and Dharamsala, in search of their kingly rulers. Kingdoms Beyond the Clouds is the story of these journeys and of his conversations with these often elusive leaders - some of whom scarcely ever grant interviews to outsiders.
'A delightful and thought-provoking read about a fascinating part of the world' Mark Tully

À propos de l?auteur
Jonathan Gregson was born and raised in Calcutta. His interest in the Himalayan region began at an early age, when family holidays took him up to the eastern hillstations of Darjeeling and Kalimpong. At school he became friends with the future King of Bhutan. He read and taught history at Oxford and Queen's University in Canada before becoming a journalist. He is a regular contributor to the Telegraph and the independent on Sunday and to the subcontinent evey year.
