Burchett, Wilfred G. , 1911-1983 THE SECOND INDOCHINA WAR : Cambodia and Laos
New York International Publishers 1970 First Edition Paperback Good with no dust jacket
Crease top corner back cover. ; 14 x 21 cm.; pg. 204 ; Introduction, index, map. "This is the most complete summary of Burchett's writing on Laos, occupying more than two-thirds of this volume. He traces Lao wars of insurrection back to the early years of French occupation; only with the Japanese occupation did they become organized on a national basis. He contrasts the United States' view that a power vacuum was created in Laos with the departure of the French, with the view of the people of Laos of a struggle for independence from foreign domination. This is a largely chronological account of events in Laos from 1941 to 1970. Burchett's position is quite clear: he supported the Pathet Lao..." Cordell #125; 0717803074
