"On October 7, 1959, the Chinese People's Liberation Army invaded the heartland of Tibet, annexing it as a western province of the newly established People's Republic of China. Since then more than a million Tibetans - 20% of the population - are believed to have perished by starvation, execution, and imprisonment. Many thousands more, including Tibet's spiritual and political leader, the 14th Dalai Lama, have been driven into exile."--BOOK JACKET.
"This thorough history of Tibet under Chinese occupation is based on extensive research and Craig's numerous interviews with Tibetan refugees. The result is a powerful cry against the political oppression and human rights abuses that have been ignored far too long by the Western world. Tears of Blood is not only an account of the Chinese atrocities, but more importantly a celebration of the Tibetan people and their non-violent struggle to preserve their culture and religion."--BOOK JACKET.
