This is the untold story of Tibet-a compelling account of conspiracy, covert organizations and international intrigue-told through the eyes of Gyalo Thondup, the Dalai Lama's elder brother. After Tibet was overrun by the Chinese in 1951, Thondup served for decades as His Holiness' special envoy to many countries, gaining an unparalleled perspective of the ongoing tussle of the divergent interests of China, India, Russia and the United States. Together with Anne F. Thurston, Gyalo Thondup shares his experiences, classified information and rare photos for the first time and his vision for Tibet in the twenty-first century.
GYALO THONDUP was born in 1929 and is the second-eldest brother of the 14th Dalai Lama. During his political career, he served, among other things, as the secret go-between for the CIA and the Tibetan resistance fighters and later as a chief political strategist as well as the Dalai Lama's official envoy to the international community.
