Lhasa and Central Tibet presents hitherto unknown religious and ethnological aspects of Tibet and once again establishes Sarat Chandra Das as one of the most profound and interesting authors on Tibet. During his explorations in Tibet, Das collected hundreds of rare manuscripts and from these sources he prepared a number of papers throwing light on various aspects of Tibet. The book provides a vivid picture of the lifestyle of the people of Tibet, their customs, festivals, rites and rituals. A wonderful work by one of the greatest pioneers of exploration and discovery in Tibet.
