In addition to the English, French, and Japanese versions of Buddha’s Warriors: The Story of the CIA-Backed Tibetan Freedom Fighters, the Chinese Invasion, and the Ultimate Fall of Tibet, TibetTimes (Dharamsala, India) has just published the Tibetan translation. The Tibetan edition was mounted in conjunction with the International Tibet Independence Movement (ITIM). The translation was funded by an anonymous foundation.
The Foreword to Buddha’s Warriors is by His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
Other translations are to follow. The Chinese version is near completion and the Czech translation has just been picked up by Paseka Publishers in Prague (whose translations include works by Vladimir Nabokov, Amos Oz, Salman Rushdie and John Updike.)
The French translation was published by Actes Sud and the Japanese was published by Kodansha Publishers (Tokyo).
The South Asian paperback edition was published by Penguin/India.
