What is a good, authoritative source on the history of Tibet?

score:4

Accepted answer

Using my elite Amazon search skills, I discovered Tibet: A History by Sam van Schaik, which looks like what you want.

Personally, I'm a fan of reading literature and/or biographies, as I find concrete stories give me a better handle on the more abstract cultural or political issues covered in a regular history. Sardathrion's books look interesting, as does Tibetan Diary by Geoff Childs.
