White Mountain: Real Imagined Journey In The Himalayas.
Home to mythical kingdoms, wars and expeditions, and strange and magical beasts, the Himalayas have always loomed tall in our imagination. Overrun at different times by Buddhism, Taoism, Shamanism, Islam and Christianity, they are a grand central station of the worlds religions. They are also a plant hunters paradise, a climbers challenge, and a travellers dream.
Following a meandering path across the Himalayas to its physical end in Nagaland on the Indian-Burmese border, In his quest to explore the regions seismic history, Twigger seeks out the Nagas, who helped his grandfather build a camp for Allied soldiers near Imphal during the Second World War and takes the most scenic bike ride in the world from Lhasa to Kathmandu. Twigger encounters incredible stories from a unique cast of mountaineers and mystics, pundits and prophets. The result is a sweeping, fascinating and surprising journey through the history of the worlds greatest mountain range.
