About this ebook

This collection of first hand accounts in which a group of young monks describe the fears and frustrations that continue to drive people to leave Tibet, brave the Himalayan passes and seek their fortunes in an unknown land is especially valuable. I hope that readers of In Their Own Words will not only be moved by these individuals' stories, but will also be persuaded of the justice of the Tibetan cause and will be inclined to give it their support. ---The Dalai Lama (from the Foreword)
