Written and translated by learned Tibetans who are passionate about their native land and people. Based on their personal experiences and firsthand information, the book harmoniously blends legends, myths, history, folklore, religion, social customs and etiquette, scenic sites and the everyday life of the Tibetan people. Different from cold, detached academic examinations or superfluous writings based on travel impressions or second hand resources as most publications on Tibet are, the book presents before the reader the true spontaneous, living Tibet as perceived by ordinary Tibetans.
