Starfire’s Reviews > In the Shadow of the Buddha: Secret Journeys, Sacred Histories, and Spiritual Discovery in Tibet > Status Update

Hmmmmm... I can see why previous reviewers have mentioned finding the book confusing at first. It *does* seem to jump around all over the place chronologically in the first section. That's probably totally appropriate, given the subject material; but for a linearly-thinking Westerner, it can be a tad challenging. Still, it's interesting enough so far to make the effort worth it, so I shall persevere :-)
