Good Info Source.By Robert HiattFirst-hand witness to attrocities commuted against the Tibetan people.5 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Sobering view of TibetBy A CustomerA good adventure style book; it chronicles the travels of two Americans in Tibet. All is lighthearted at the start of the trip; but soon they realize the true brutality of Chinese rule in Tibet. This book will hold your interest. I commend the two authors for their bravery and courage. I recommend this book as a real page turner.13 of 15 people found the following review helpful. Inspirational and very well documented.By tenzin kaldeni recomend this book to everyone and if you are a tibetan you must read it. this is one of the best books i have read on tibet and it gives you a very vivid picture of the october 1;1987 uprising in Lahsa and the events that followed. it inspired me and it reminded me as a tibetan that there are thousands of tibetans right now as we go about our daily lives; that are imprisoned and being tortured mercilessly in a dark; damp cell in some corner of tibet. it reminded me that i have a responsibility as a tibetan towards the freedom of tibet. i constantly sobbed throughout the book as i learned more and more how the chinese relentlessy killed tibetans and tortured them with cattle prods; riffle butts; electric batons and all kinds of horrifying instruments. the book also includes numerous interviews with tibetan refugees who have escaped the tyranny of the red star. Blake Kerr later travels to Dharamsala and meets the Dalai Lama. the book is very well written and i enjoyed reading it and the scant humur used in it. go read it...
