When the author went to Vietnam in 1956 to complete his PhD in anthropology, he didn't realize he would be there for most of the next eighteen years through the entire Vietnam War. He worked with the country folk of the Mekong Delta for several years. This title presents the studies of these independent, brave, and misunderstood people.
