Zusammenfassung:"Although the trans-Himalayan traffic in subsistence commodities in Nepal has been researched, notably by Christoph von Furer-Haimendorf, that in Ladakh has till now remained almost entirely undocumented. Oral evidence is related to documentary sources ranging from Bernier's Travels in the seventeenth century to A. W. Radhu's 1981 account of the trade between Leh and Lhasa. This book documents an extraordinarily complex pattern of trade which was otherwise in danger of vanishing without record."--BOOK JACKET.
