The Heart of the World: a Tibetan Journey by Ian Baker.
It's a non-fiction adventure-travelogue by a rogue National Geographic explorer hiking all over the Himalayas with a mystic sherpa looking for Shangri-La, dealing with shady porters, leeches, local weirdos, sickness, and, of course, the Chinese Army. It reads like Survivorman Les Stroud + Rudyard Kipling X Indiana Jones. It's pretty much my personal Bible, or would be if I were a religious man.
I am utterly astonished that it only has 51 reviews. It's one of the most enlightening, well-written books I've ever encountered in my life.
