This review is from: Culture and Customs of Vietnam: (Culture and Customs of Asia) (Hardcover)
Written by a husband and wife team, with years of experience in Vietnam and its culture, this well developed text provides a detailed look at most of the major areas of Vietnamese culture and customs. Topic areas covered include Vietnamese history, cultural impacts of war and occupation, religion, literature, architecture, food and cuisine, family culture, festivals, and the arts. I would heartily recommend this book to families who have adopted from Vietnam - AdoptVietnam.org - or for anyone who is interested in a more complete understanding of Vietnam and its people.
