Castles In The Air: Experiences And Journeys In Unknown Bhutan, John Claude White

Additional Items

White, John Claude. “Castles in the Air: Experiences and Journeys in Unknown Bhutan” The National Geographic Magazine 15.4 (1914): 365-455.

UTEP was founded in 1914 as the Texas State School of Mines and Metallurgy, and the inspiration for its architecture is credited to Kathleen Worrell, wife of the School's first dean, who was fascinated with an 88-page photo-essay on Bhutan that appeared in the April 1914 issue of National Geographic magazine.
