Excellant Beginners Intro to Tibet,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Tibetan Pilgrimage: Architecture of the Sacred Land (Hardcover)
You can't go wrong with this beautifully illustrated book. It's an excellent book to get a beginners' grasp of Tibet. The wonderful watercolors just suck you right in, and then the very readable text gets you up to speed on what you are looking at, with much of Tibet's history. But it's not a dense history book that puts you right to sleep. It's light and enjoyable reading for those who wish to just dip their toes into the water on the subject. Even scholars would appreciate it for the illustrations to help bring to life deeper information that they've found elsewhere. In other words, I highly recommend it to Tibet scholars as a companion book as well. So whether you're a newbie on the subject or an advanced scholar, you won't be disappointed with this book.
