Hardbound. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. In the late 19th century, no-one in the Western world knew the full course, or, indeed, the source of the great Mekong River. In 1866, however, six Frenchmen set out with an expedition to see a trade route up the Mekong into China. It is this relatively lesser known expedition, although the equal of others such as Burton's and Speke's in Africa, that is the subject of this volume.
