Soft cover. Condizione: Fine. 127 pp. The book, originally published in 1893, is the vivid first-hand account of Dr. Louis Pichon s two-month journey from Hanoi to southern Yunnan in spring 1892. Part travelogue, part tract, it urges development of France s relatively new Protectorate of Tonkin. The text spans a variety of genres and takes up a number of issues of urgent concern for the colony s economic development. The improvement of transportation links with China lies at the center of Pichon s exhortations, and he discusses the future of trade and industry in the region with the passion of a convert. A medical doctor by profession, he also deals with the ravages of plague, with insalubrity, and ill health. A tale of colonial ambitions and attitudes, this highly readable account will appeal not only to specialists of Vietnam and Yunnan but to any reader keen to voyage in the "exotic" regions of northern Vietnam and southern China of some hundred years ago.

Utilizando el enfoque etnográfico bien establecido de la "descripción densa", esta contribución al estudio de las costumbres alimentarias tailandesas y del sudeste asiático se centra en el nexo entre los hábitos alimentarios, la construcción social del género y los patrones de desarrollo urbano en una de las megaciudades del mundo. Al proporcionar una instantánea detallada del período de rápido crecimiento de principios a mediados de la década de 1990 en el centro de Bangkok y concluir con ideas sobre los impactos de la crisis económica que causó estragos en la última parte de la década, Gisèle Yasmeen ilustra los impactos sociales, económicos y culturales recursivos del "paisaje alimentario" en el espacio urbano.

Soft cover. Condizione: Fine. 172 pp., illustrations. This book is a photographic sketch of the colonies and protectorates the French established around the turn of the century and the budding exploitation of those colonies. Indochinese architecture, landscapes, and people in their daily activities are shown in 203 magnificent photographs from the 19302. The journey covers the present-day countries of Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos. The text, in English, includes a brief introduction to the specific characteristics and history of each country. The photographs also include monuments of Champa, an extinct culture on the coast of Central Vietnam. Tribal people from various regions are shown in their traditional costumes.
Soft cover. Condizione: Fine. 267 pp., illustrations. A report of explorations undertaken in Laos and present-day Vietnam by one of the main architects of French expansion in Southeast Asia. For the first part of his explorations, Dr François Jules Harmand concentrated his journey of early 1877 on exploring the Boloven Plateau. His attention was focused especially on natural history and on the tribes living in this area. The second part of his exploration brought him to river valleys in Central Laos and the country of the Pou Thay, the original stock of the Thais, with the objective of finding a route from Bassac on the Mekong to Hué on the Vietnamese coast. The value of his observations on nature, people and political relations is only surpassed by the intrinsic value of this account as an example of nineteenth century French colonialists at work.
