Review
This excellent work, very well documented, should be read by all historians of Southeast Asia.>>>>
Few books on Vietnam have stood the test of time as well as Pham Cao Duong's classic study of the Vietnamese peasantry under colonialism. With this excellent translation, Professor Duong's seminal study is now accessible to all scholars interested in Vietnam.^RRRR
...vivid, sensitive, and fascinatingly informative...an absolutely indispensable reference work to which all students of Vietnamese history have been, and are, indebted.>>>>
