Author: Boin-Pare, Rene         $94.50
Soft Cover w/Spiral Near Fine 1st Edition 4to-over 9-3/4in. -12in. tall.
Spiral bound, single sided 8" x 11 1/2" color photos, unpaginated but there must be about 120 full size color photos of the author's journey through Vietnam. Undated but suspect from photos of the South that have no Coca-Cola signs, a map that shows one Vietnam, and from the quality/age of the paper that this was privately produced by the author in the last 20 years. about 50% of the book covers the Hmong with their bright costumes and women carrying breech loading rifles. You will not be disappointed in this photo essay of Vietnam and the Hmong. Every page is a single photo, with a few maps detailing his travels and very little narrative-perhaps 2-3 pages at most.
