  1. Aditya –

    Detailed and informative, but the writing style is a bit dry. Good for history buffs interested in Tibet.

  2. Palak –

    A must-read for anyone interested in Tibetan history. Though, be prepared for some outdated viewpoints.

  3. Sachin Sanjay Kakad –

    Incredible insights into early th-century Tibet. Some biases are apparent, but overall a great read.

  4. Pratibha Singh –

    Loved learning about Tibetan culture! The political context was also well-explained. Highly recommend.

  5. Devanjana M S –

    A bit slow to start, but the descriptions of Lhasa are captivating. Worth persevering with.

  6. Aditya Dongre –

    The photos are amazing! It brings the era to life. A unique and insightful journey.

  7. Ayush Singh –

    A fascinating historical account, though Landon’s perspective feels very colonial at times. Still, a valuable window into a closed world.

  8. Gayatri Awasthi –

    An important historical document but some of the views expressed are troubling from a modern perspective.

  9. Nehal Jain –

    An eye-opening journey. It sometimes felt a little one-sided. Regardless, it’s worth checking out.

  10. Arijit Pattanayak –

    A mixed bag. Interesting content, but the author’s tone can be condescending. Read with caution.

  11. Gadireddy Venkata Sai Krishna Phanindra –

    I had mixed feelings. It was interesting, but I wish there were more Tibetan voices included. A product of its time.
