One Hundred Thousand Moons: An Advanced Political History of Tibet

封面
BRILL, 2010 - 609 頁
This two-volume history of Tibet is unusual in that the author lived through many of the events which he wrote about. Shakabpa (1907-1989) came from a prominent Tibetan family, noted for its role in government. He remained in political circles, advocating for an independent Tibet all his life. The first section of the history is a description of life and customs in Tibet and the traditional stories of the origin of the country. For this Shakabpa drew on family papers and his own experience as well as official documents. Throughout, his intent is to refute Chinese claims that Tibet was once a part of the Chinese empire.
