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.40uhttps://archive.org/details/historyofcambodi00chan  cAEDBB  c22343d22343  0010406959_000000000000000_DAV_1982_C096_OR70996669aLBCbLBCcC096d2023-12-06o959 DAV 1982 C096 Or.pa21488r2023-12-06w2023-12-06yAEDBB
