Description:
Bangkok: White Lotus, 2001. The book provides an account of the adventurous journey German traveler Otto Ehlers undertook in 1891-1892.

His skillful use of both helped him evade all kinds of impositions, calamities, and problems in dealing with food supplies and means of transportation to cross through British and partly Chinese-claimed Shan States from Chiang Rai in Siam to Chiang Tung. When Ehlers and his party were refused entry…
