In excellent, near-new condition, no signs of damage. In 1774 the head of the East India Company in Bengal determined to open trade relations with the impenetrable court of imperial China. George Bogle was made the first British envoy to Tibet. Once there, he attempted to enlist support from the Panchen Lama to attract the sympathy of the Qianlong Emperor who took a dim view of the British Empire. This is the story of the British attempt to influence the Emperor, and of two extraordinary journeys: Bogle's mission, and the Panchen Lama's state visit to China, on which British hopes were hung. .
