Dorris Shelton Still

Dorris Evangeline Shelton Still (25 August 1904 – 29 April 1997[1]) was an American author.

She was the eldest daughter of Albert Shelton (1875–1922), an American missionary, who was stationed in the remote border town of Batang between 1908 and 1921.

Batang was part of the Kham region of eastern Tibet.

It was a rare book in its time, in that the main character and heroine of the adventures was a girl.

Shelton Still would later engage herself in Tibetan causes and also met the 14th Dalai Lama.
