Description
New book still in shrink-wrap. 168pp. Every year over 3,000 Tibetans risk their lives fleeing from Tibet. The TV and photo journalist Dieter Glogowski escorted Tibetan refugee children on their way over the 5,800 meter high Nangpa-la Pass into Nepal. His breathtaking images of the lands and the refugees, combined with Franz Binder's account of the complex Tibetan-Sino relations over time provide a comprehensive picture of the drama taking place on the roof of the world.
