Description
Political life and times of Bapa Phuntsok Wangyal, first communist leader of Tibet.
Description
"This is the as-told-to political autobiography of Phuntso Wangye (Phunwang), one of the most important Tibetan revolutionary figures of the twentieth century. Born in 1922 in Batang, a part of Eastern Tibet that was under the administration of China, Phunwang received a modern education, first in his village and then in Nanjing, the capital of Chiang Kaishek's Nationalist China. There he discovered the writings of Lenin and developed a vision of a new socialist Tibet that would make use of the modern economic and social institutions and be ruled by Tibetans."--BOOK JACKET.
