Tibetan Foothold

£7.99

In July 1963 Dervla arrives in Delhi after having cycled for thousands of miles (if you want to know more about that part of the story, read her first book Full Tilt). The weather is too hot to cycle till November so she decides to spend some time doing voluntary work with Tibetan refugees. Her heart-rending account is interwoven with her own observations on the problems that rise when trying to help a culture that has always lived in isolation.
