{"product_id":"baguette-pissant-independence-mai-mcbride-9781631322358","title":"Baguette, Pissant, Independence","description":"\u003cp\u003eNgoc Mai writes of Vietnamese history from the perspective of a common person. As a child, she unwittingly aided her father to undermine French colonial rule. He did not survive. She tells of her life as the elder sister caring for siblings, and later as a young mother of six. She was run down in the street and left abandoned by an allied soldier, a life-changing event. She lived a life of dignified poverty eking out a living selling food, charcoal, and used clothing. After the fall of Saigon, she departed with her children by boat on a perilous voyage to safety. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mai McBride\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1631322354\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781631322358\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Advanced Publishing LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/04\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 166\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.38d","brand":"Mai McBride","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45898967056639,"sku":"9781631322358","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c9197066-1736-45e2-a67f-8bb192e79b0f.jpg?v=1721377552","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/baguette-pissant-independence-mai-mcbride-9781631322358","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
