Items related to Before Kampuchea: Preludes to Tragedy
The year that Milton Osborne judges to have been a turning point in Cambodia's modern history was 1966, a year he spent working in Phnom Penh and travelling widely in the countryside. He recounts many telling - and moving - personal experiences during this time: the corruption and political manoeuvring within the capital, visits to the provinces, and, above all, friendships with Cambodians who were to make their own direct contributions to the years ahead. This title provides both a knowledgeable, personal record of people and places in a rapidly changing society, and a penetrating analysis of the factors that were soon to plunge a country into chaos and disaster.
