"Certain aspects of Vietnamese history have been published in a few books written in the Vietnamese and French languages, but this work is unique in that it is the first political history of Vietnam to appear in English. Furthermore...this study brings fresh documentary information taken from French Government files which were kept secret until late 1955. The account covers more than two thousand years of Vietnamese history, with particular treatment of how Vietnam has been a bulwark against Chinese penetration into and conquest of Southeast Asia for hundreds of years during the pre-colonial period. The study provides insight into the forces which shaped Vietnam's mentality and gives a knowledge of the circumstances which enabled the Vietnamese to survive and avoid absorption into the Chinese empire.

"Picking up the story in 1896, more or less where THE SMALLER DRAGON leaves off, this massive history is broadly critical of both French colonialists and Vietnamese communists, and has an unconcealed preference for anti-communist nationalists like Ngo Dinh Diem. Buttinger completed it before relevant archival materials became available, yet 407 pages of end-notes offer unparalleled introduction to published sources, especially French. There are six appendixes and an impressive bibliography." Marr #281 [NOTE: Due to size and weight of the two volumes, postage surcharge may apply to shipment outside of the United States. ]

Goa's best known contemporary writer, Mario Cabral e Sa, attempts to capture the essence of this amalgam of cultures in his laconic style, peppered with a distinctively Goan sense of humour. What emerges is a memorable account of the essentially Portuguese connection of the state and the history of some of its important monuments and feast days." ISBN: 817437065X ; 817437065X

14 x 22 cm.; pg. x, 186 ; Introduction, appendixes, bibliography, index, list of 5 illustrations. "This book supplies a long-missing chapter in the history of 18th century Tibet--the struggle of the British East India Company to establish trade, the progress of the Sino-Nepalese War, and the extension of Manchu imperialism from Tibet. Without the background of these events it is virtually impossible to understand the later English efforts to open Tibet, the Anglo-Chinese disputes over this region, and the present claims and counterclaims of Chinese Communists and Tibetans. Yet this is the first complete reconstruction from English and Chinese sources of the crucial years which preceded the extension of Manchu imperialism and made Tibet the 'Forbidden Land' we now know.

In the early twentieth century, China witnessed the twilight of the oldest civilization on earth, the waning of the romantic colonial era, and the exciting beginnings of a new world. In this compelling pause in Chinese history, when gossip of a twelfth century poet seemed as alive as the bustling streets of Shanghai, Enid Candlin discovered and became enchanted with China. With a rare blend of intellectual curiosity, vivacity, and resilience, she investigated her world and the world responded by laying before her its cities and walls, its poems and paintings, its stories and history.

The visual arts powerfully illustrate this tenacious unity.

" On the 27th of June, 1968, during the Cultural Revolution, great excitement was caused throughout China by the excavation of the Man Ch'eng tombs--a discovery that ranks high among the great archaeological finds of this century. In these huge tombs, carved out of living rock, were found the bodies of Liu Sheng , a prince of the Han Dynasty (206 BC - 220 AD) , and his consort, Princess Tou Wan. The bodies had been covered from head to toe in suits of finely-carved interlocking jade pieces, held together by wires of gold and silver--figures of exquisite beauty and craftsmanship. [The author] has used the lives of the Jade Princes as the focus for this fascinating account of China in the age of the first of the great ruling dynasties. "

He considers the land system as the key to Tibet's social structure...Land tenure as related to political organization is the central subject of this book. " Yakushi C39
