Summary:

"Behind the staid public rooms of an old-world gentlemen's club operates a more mysterious organization: the Explorers Guild, a clandestine group of adventurers who bravely journey to those places in which light gives way to shadow and reason is usurped by myth. As World War I rages, the Guild embarks on a quest to find Shambhala, the golden city of Buddhist myth. The search will take them from the polar north to the Mongolian deserts, throught the underground canals of Asia to deep inside the Himalayas, before the fabled city finally divulges its secrets and the globe-spanning journey plays out to its startling conclusion." --page [4] of cover.
