This book has received an Honorable Mention from the 2001 Southern Books Competition. "An unusually effective travel album beckons the reader with a truly dramatic dust jacket. Exceptional end papers charm and lead the reader forward. Color and theme continue from the clear, attractive dedication page. Bright, energetic color images engage the reader in a simple, easily viewed format." Congratulations to the author, designer Erin Kirk New, and the University of Georgia Press.

This exquisite pictorial collection captures my heart just like the previous "The Spirit of Tibet: Portrait of a Culture in Exile" by Alison Wright. William Chapman has captured the soul and spirit of the Tibetan people, a people in exile. I have always have a strong interest in Tibet, and, hpefully, one day I can experience the roof of the world myself. The collection has unveiled the people, the land, and the religion behind the facade. You may experience and sense the peace, joy, meekness of the people. Beautifully done!

This amazing pictorial record of Tibet as it is today - its people, its children, the religious orders, the landscape, is breathtaking in its scope & beauty. Mr. Chapman has captured the very soul of this country and its people. You will treasure this book and the window it provides to a far & little known place.
