The Saga of Tibet

American journalist Lowell Thomas Jr. visited Tibet (then a mysterious, but free nation), in 1949 with his father and met Dalai Lama (then a teenage boy). They were the 7th and 8th Americans in the history to be granted this privilege. Thomas's 1950 book "Out Of This World - across the Himalayas to forbidden Tibet" contains rare and important photographs of period Tibet, before its collapse in 1959.
