ABOUT
Noel Barber's story takes him not only to Tezpur to welcome the God-king, but up through the high passes of Tibet to talk, in person, with the leaders of the Tibetan guerillas.
And so piece together the complete story of what was happening, and how it led to the great revolt at Lhasa, and the escape of the Dalai Lama.
Barber writes of Tibet and its people as vividly as he wrote of Antarctica in The White Desert, and this new book, in turn exciting, entertaining, angry, but intelligent always, establishes himself as one of the world's best and most brilliant writers.
Includes monochrome images and maps.
Includes several separate newspaper clippings.
