While I consider myself somewhat knowledgeable about the world, Nepal always seemed to have a blank spot in the geography of my mind. Tibet? Check. Burma? Check. Nepal? Ummm....Sherpas?
Thanks to this book, I have a much better grasp of the nation, the fierce patriotism of its people, and the strange royal families (and prime ministers) who have ruled the country. The author keeps the reader enthralled with the historical characters and then leads up to the catastrophe itself. I was hooked.
