Ottley was a member of the mounted infantry unit that was tasked with advancing into Tibet and engaging with the Tibetan forces. The book provides a detailed description of the journey from India to Tibet and the challenges faced by the British troops during the expedition. Ottley describes the harsh terrain, extreme weather conditions, and the difficulties of navigating through the mountainous region. He also provides a vivid account of the battles fought by the British troops against the Tibetan forces and the strategies employed by both sides.With Mounted Infantry in Tibet is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the British colonial expansion into Tibet and the impact it had on the local population. The book also sheds light on the military tactics and strategies employed by the British army during the early 20th century. Overall, it is a fascinating read for anyone interested in military history and the history of colonialism in Asia.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
