Shambhala In Search of the New Era

Nicholas Roerich--artist, philosopher, and explorer--relates the remarkable encounters and events of his travels through central Asia and Tibet at the turn of the 20th century. In his detailed diary notes he chronicled the legends and tales of Shambhala, the long-awaited realization of paradise on earth. With chapters on Tibetan art, the desert cities, and subterranean dwellers, Shambhala reveals Roerich's vision of a new age of human achievement.
