Muslim, Trader, Nomad, Spy

- China's Cold War and the People of the Tibetan Borderlands

Bag om Muslim, Trader, Nomad, Spy

In 1959, the Dalai Lama fled Lhasa, leaving the People's Republic of China with a crisis on its Tibetan frontier. Sulmaan Wasif Khan tells the story of the PRC's response to that crisis and, in doing so, brings to life an extraordinary cast of characters: Chinese diplomats appalled by sky burials, Guomindang spies, traders carrying salt across the Himalayas, and Tibetan Muslims rioting in Lhasa.
