Beginning with the rise of ancient seafaring civilizations at Oc Eco and moving on to the glory of the Cambodian empire in the first millennium, through European colonization and the struggle for independence in the twentieth century, Osborne traces the history of the region that comprises the modern nations of Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Malaysia, Burma, and China. Vibrant, insightful, and eminently readable, The Mekong is a rousing history of a dynamic region that has fascinated readers the world over.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Milton Osborne\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0802138020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780802138026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Grove Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/16\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.28h x 5.50w x 0.85d","brand":"Milton Osborne","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43988261011711,"sku":"9780802138026","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6542da7b-3417-44d8-bee5-66eeb4876369.jpg?v=1683293531","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-mekong-milton-osborne-9780802138026","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
