In these times of social media saturation, many are the travelers who set off to track down an Instagrammable meal at a holeinthewall featured by Anthony Bourdain or David Chang. Seamus OBrien, however, journeyed to an unfamiliar locale with an analog guide from another era: the notes made by Joseph Dalton Hooker as he chronicled his journeys in the Sikkim Himilaya in the northeastern most corner of India. Eager to see the plants described in Hookers account, OBrien set off nearly one hundred and fifty years later to trace Hookers footsteps through the natural wonders of the Himalayas, recounting the adventure in this new book. With Hooker as his guide, OBrien compares midnineteenthcentury notes to twentyfirstcentury realityand he discovers that remarkably little has changed. Accompanied by Hookers maps and illustrations, the book is a testament to the regions splendor and to Hookers skill as a botanist and cartographer.
