Books
In January 1896, at the age of 64, Isabella Bird set off to explore the Yangtze River and the lonely mountain region of north-west China. A veteran of 20 years travel in America, Asia and the Near East, it was her last great adventure, but as full of drama and spectacle as any that had gone before.
