Rezensionen

This is the first comprehensive work in any language on Cambodia as a 90-year French colony. Summing Up: RECOMMENDED. All levels. -- H.T. Wong, Eastern Washington University CHOICE France on the Mekong is a straightforward narrative that traces the political and social developments of Cambodia under French rule. Tully's well-researched and comprehensive treatment of the subject...is a much-needed contribution to the literature on the subject. -- Patricia M.E. Lorcin, University of Minnesota-Twin Cities H-France John Tully's masterful fine grained study of the French Colonial era in Cambodia fills a wide lacuna in Cambodian historiography and is also a marvelous read...he provides one of the fairest and most nuanced pictures of the French geste that I have encountered in over forty years of immersion in the subject. -- From the Foreword, Professor David Chandler, Washington, D.C. >
