"In the following pages, I have endeavoured to present a faithful sketch of a series of travels made by me in such truly romantic countries as Tibet, Sikkim, Nepal, etc." - from the Foreword. "Our journey to Tibet was due to a very small incident, odd as the story may seem. A casual ride on a 'bus in London in 1921 not only culminated in one of the biggest and most daring adventures in Tibet, but it was also instrumental in introducing to the notice of the British and American publics the first moving pictures of the City of the Undying Dalai Lama that lies in the very hear of the great Asiatic continent. A lecturing angagement had taken us to Bloomsbury. The night was damp and foggy, so we occupied a seat inside the 'bus." - page 4. [Reference: Marshall "Britain and Tibet" 3651: "Knight was the self-styled leader of the Buddhist 'British Expedition to Tibet, 1922-23' which hoped to film Lhasa. He received permission to travel as far as Gyantse with four other companions including William McGovern in 1922"; Yakushi K103].
