A history of Cambodia / Boulder : Westview Press ; North Sydney, NSW, Australia : Allen & Unwin, 1992. xv, 287 p. : ill., maps ; 24 cm. "This thoroughly revised and updated edition of A History of Cambodia provides a timely look at this increasingly visible Southeast Asian nation. Hailed by the Journal of Asian Studies as an "original contribution, superior to any other existing work," the first edition ended in 1953 with Cambodia's independence from France; the second carries the narrative forward to the peace negotiations of 1990. In the new material, Chandler focuses especially on the unstable but influential career of Prince Norodom Sihanouk, the bloody reign of Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge, and the relative calm that followed the Vietnamese invasion of 1979. This concise yet comprehensive work will illuminate--for specialists and general readers alike--the history and contemporary politics of a country long misunderstood."--BOOK JACKET. https://archive.org/details/historyofcambodi00chan AEDBB 22343 22343 0 0 0 959_000000000000000_DAV_1982_C096_OR 0 96669 LBC LBC C096 2023-12-06 959 DAV 1982 C096 Or. a21488 2023-12-06 2023-12-06 AEDBB
