Vol. 1 (of 2)" by Sven Hedin is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores Hedin's ambitious journey through Tibet, detailing his discoveries and the various challenges he faced while attempting to explore this largely uncharted region.

The opening of the narrative sets the stage for Hedin’s expedition, outlining his longing to return to Tibet after a previous journey and detailing the preparation and difficulty of gaining permission from British authorities. He reflects on his desire for exploration and the obstacles posed by political circumstances, particularly the reluctance of the British government to allow him access to Tibetan territory. At the start of his journey, Hedin meticulously plans his route and the logistics of his caravan, introducing key individuals who will accompany him on this venture into the unknown, while expressing a profound yearning for adventure and discovery.
