ebooks Born in Lhasa: The Autobiography of Namgyal Lhamo Taklha by Namgyal Lhamo Taklha in History

Description

We can bring no greater honor to those who serve our country in war than to remember their sacrifice. Army veteran and author Vincent Krepps has devoted much of his life doing just that. "One Came Home" is this soldier's intensely personal account of the Korean War; and a commitment to his brother that has endured for more than fifty years. Veterans; families of servicemen; history students; or anyone interested in learning about the Korean War will find it a rich historical resource.

An intimate view on a lost culture...By Chime NangchenI am priviledged to know Namgyal Lhamo-la and recommend this personal narrative of her life and society to all those who love Tibet. The culture into which Namlha-la is one of grace and beauty and readers will be whisked away to her world as page after page leads them into the lanes and byways of a lost Tibet. We also grieve with her as her family seeks to reinvent themselves after the Chinese takeover of Tibet forces them to take refuge in one country after another. An essential for students of Asian cultures and friends of Tibet everywhere!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. To have this honest and sincere recording of a way ...By Mary-Ann RowlandTo have this honest and sincere recording of a way of life which has now disappeared is very precious.I wish that all young Tibetans in exile will have the opportunity to read this book. Namgyal has spent all her later years giving to the people of Tibet and still continues to do so. She is a real inspiration.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
