George Bishop.

Pere David, a French missionary, made three difficult and sometimes dangerous journeys of exploration and discovery through Imperial China, Inner Mongolia and Tibet between 1864 and 1874. This is the story of these journeys. David collected many plants, insects, animals and birds then unknown to European science and he was made a member of the French Academy of Sciences for his contributions to natural history. Illustrations and twenty colour plates.
