Hilton, James
Original publication date: 1934
Original publisher: William Morrow & Company
Publication status: Out of print
A tale about the hidden paradise called Shangri-La, based in part on the Hunza. It is also a darn good tale exploring the human potential for spiritual development. The movie, “Lost Horizon” was based on this book. Like virtually all such derivations, the book is a much richer experience than the movie ever could be. A great story, well worth reading.
