It is a stimulating adventure, both of the mind and of the spirit. It is an almost incredible tale of three men and a woman who were transported into the timeless Utopia of a Tibetan lamasery. This place - Shangri-La is the realization of all escapist dreams. Here is practiced the Greek precept of moderation, with life illimitably extended, and here men conserve the frail elegancies of civilization. - book jacket.

Work Description
Following a plane crash, Conway, a British consul; his deputy; a missionary; and an American financier find themselves in the enigmatic snow-capped mountains of uncharted Tibet. Here they discover a seemingly perfect hidden community where they are welcomed with gracious hospitality. Intrigued by its mystery, the travellers set about discovering the secret hidden at the shimmering heart of Shangri-La.
