5.0 out of 5 stars
Even nonadmirers of Ho may like this,
By Andre M. "brnn64" (Mt. Pleasant, SC United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ho Chi Minh on Revolution: Selected Writings, 1920-66 (Paperback)
Communist propaganda doesn't usually make for good reading, but regardless of your politics, Ho actually wrote well and it translates rather smoothly. Ho's article on the "Negro Question" was a probable factor in the support that he recieved from people such as the African-American revolutionary Robert Williams and the Black Panther movement. Conservatives may find irony in Ho's quoting from the Declaration of Independence in his victory speech after the defeat of Japan. In either case, whatever one may make of Ho Chi Minh today, his ideas are rather articulate and interesting. Good for a history class.
