The last 5 summers I travelled in Gansu,Qinghai and Tibet,trying to
follow travellers of the 19th and early 20th centuries.The main
difficulty is to find what is to-day's name of all the names encountered
in the diaries of the travellers.
I found the maps compiled by the (US) Army Map Service of the 1:1 000
000 International Map of the World,Series 1301 very useful. I found a
poor copy of Sheet NJ 47,it is very exciting as you find a mixture of
Chinese,Mongol and Tibetan names,the area covered is the same as TPC
G8B,very poor in surface information.Both are very complementary.
I am searching for other sheets of the same series,in particular NJ 48,
and more generaly sheets covering Gansu,Qinghai and Tibet.

If somebody has access to these maps and can make multi A3 photocopy, I
would be grateful and for sure pay for the copies and mailing...
Gratefully yours,       Jean Hanus
