Review

The 1938 Schäfer Expedition to Tibet forgotten by most, misunderstood by many, produced the most extensive photographic record of Tibetan life prior to the Chinese invasion. The most fascinating of its photographs, beautifully reproduced and carefully captioned, are presented here, accompanied by illuminating essays on Schäfer and the compelling world he encountered. --Donald S. Lopez, Arthur E. Link Distinguished Professor of Buddhist and Tibetan Studies, University of Michigan
