[Ronald John Henry Kaulback (1909 - 1995) was a British explorer, botanist and geographer. After studying at the University of Cambridge and learning surveying at the Royal Geographical Society he accompanied Frank Kingdon-Ward on an expedition to Tibet, setting sail from Marseilles on 29th January 1933 and arriving in Bombay on 15th February.
