Detailed Product Description
NY, 1987, 1st US ed. 238 pp, many olor photos, bibliography, endpaper maps. There is no writing in the book or other flaws, and the dust jacket has no wear and is not price clipped. The Dust Jacket and the book are Fine. The Dust Jacket is protected by a removable clear plastic cover that we call a Brodart (the maker.) The author went to Tibet in 1982 under the guise of climbing Shishapangma with a group. Despite Chinese law which forbade it, she set off on her own to explore the country and meet the people. The author writes of her journey of self-discovery. To the reader it gives a vivid impression of an ancient and mystical way of life that could soon disappear altogether now that the Chinese have homogenized homes, drilled industrial conformity into the economy and opened the floodgates to package doors.
