Produktbeschreibung
""France and Tongking"" is a historical account of the French campaign in 1884 to occupy the region of Tonkin in northern Vietnam, and their subsequent occupation of Further India (present-day Laos and Cambodia). The book is written by James George Scott, a British officer who served as a military observer during the campaign. The narrative begins with an overview of the political and economic situation in Southeast Asia in the late 19th century, including the rivalry between France and Britain for control of the region. Scott then describes the French expedition to Tonkin, which was initially met with resistance from the Vietnamese forces. The book provides a detailed account of the battles and military tactics used by both sides, as well as the political maneuvering and negotiations that took place during the campaign. After the French successfully occupied Tonkin, they turned their attention to the neighboring regions of Laos and Cambodia. Scott describes the challenges faced by the French in these areas, including the difficult terrain and the resistance of local populations. He also discusses the political and economic motivations behind the French occupation, as well as the impact it had on the region's indigenous peoples.Overall, ""France and Tongking"" provides a comprehensive and engaging account of a significant moment in Southeast Asian history, and sheds light on the complex political and military dynamics of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
