This book is an archival deep-dive into the history of Tibet, from its earliest origins and pre-recorded history right up to the early twentieth century. The book's author, an accomplished Tibetan scholar, relies on the existing historical record as well as the author's own substantial expertise to present a complex and nuanced account of Tibetan society and its lengthy relationship with the rest of the world. The book explores the long period of isolationist and exclusionary policies upheld by Tibet, analysing the influence of the Chinese and the motivations behind the Tibetans' reluctance to engage with the outside world. The author's wealth of knowledge on the subject, honed over decades of research, brings to life the full history of Tibetan society and its interactions with China and the West. This book is required reading for anyone hoping to understand Tibet's role in the great game of world diplomacy and international intrigue.
