First published in 1957, Young Days in Tibet is a rare and vivid memoir by Dr. Tsewang Y. Pemba, offering an intimate glimpse into life in independent Tibet through the eyes of a young boy. With warmth and clarity, Dr. Pemba recalls his beloved homeland—its traditions, landscapes, and close-knit communities—painting a picture of a country that many today know only through memory and history.
From his childhood in the high mountains of Tibet to his journey to study at a British school in India, this coming-of-age story bridges two worlds while preserving the spirit of a Tibet that no longer exists under occupation.
More than a personal story, this book stands as an important historical record—especially meaningful for new generations of Tibetans born and raised in exile, and for readers seeking to understand Tibet’s cultural heritage before 1959.
