"High Valley is the story of Salom, a young man seeking a place where he can be at home and fully accepted. He was orphaned as a baby and adopted and raised by Tibetans. He knows he is not Tibetan. His father was Chinese, a soldier killed marching northward years before with the Chinese Red Army. When Salom is a man grown, he rides down into China to claim his birthright there. His own people reject him. The Chinese jeer at him because of his outlandish Tibetan clothes and his halting tongue. He is not Chinese. Where can he belong?"--Dust jacket.
