Vietnam by Christopher Goscha Book Summary

The definitive history of modern Vietnam, lauded as "groundbreaking" (Guardian) and "the best one-volume history of modern Vietnam in English" (Wall Street Journal) and a finalist for the Cundill History Prize

In Vietnam, Christopher Goscha tells the full history of Vietnam, from antiquity to the present day. Generations of emperors, rebels, priests, and colonizers left complicated legacies in this remarkable country. Periods of Chinese, French, and Japanese rule reshaped and modernized Vietnam, but so too did the colonial enterprises of the Vietnamese themselves as they extended their influence southward from the Red River Delta. Over the centuries, numerous kingdoms, dynasties, and states have ruled over -- and fought for -- what is now Vietnam. The bloody Cold War-era conflict between Ho Chi Minh's communist-backed Democratic Republic of Vietnam and the American-backed Republic of Vietnam was only the most recent instance when war divided and transformed Vietnam.

A major achievement, Vietnam offers the grand narrative of the country's complex past and the creation of the modern state of Vietnam. It is the definitive single-volume history for anyone seeking to understand Vietnam today.

Connecting the dots. This is a unique and fresh new history of Vietnam that provides anyone interested in Vietnamese history with multiple “a ha!” moments thanks to Goscha’s perceptions and connections. He does an excellent job of connecting the dots between Vietnam’s most relevant historical periods, revealing how each led to the other and their ultimate connection to the Vietnam of today. Thanks Christopher!

Outstanding History of Vietnam. Complex well done analysis of Vietnamese history and how the country evolved into its current day form. One notes particularly the way Chinese and Soviet communism failed because of the inability to respect individual freedoms.
