Sobre este artículo
London: George Allen and Unwin Ltd., 1975. In the late 19th century, no-one in the Western world knew the full course, or, indeed, the source of the great Mekong River. In 1866, however, six Frenchmen set out with an expedition to see a trade route up the Mekong into China. It is this relatively lesser known expedition, although the equal of others such as Burton's and Speke's in Africa, that is the subject of this volume. "…eloquent, spellbinding…" - Alexander Woodside, Harvard University. Former owner's name on front paste-down, some foxing on top page edges, internal pages all clean and bright. xxii, 249 pp., 20 b&w ill.'s, 2 maps. First Edition. Hardbound. Very Good/Very Good. 21 x 14 cm..
