Synopsis:
Here is a brief, well-written, and lively history of Southeast Asia from ancient times to the present, paying particular attention to the region's role in world history. Lockard shows how for several millennia Southeast Asians, living at the crossroads of Asia, enjoyed ever expanding connections to both China and India, and later developed maritime trading networks to the Middle East and Europe. Lockard describes colonization by Europeans and Americans between 1500 and 1914 and shows how Southeast Asians regained their independence after World War II.
About the Author: Craig Lockard is Ben and Joyce Rosenberg Professor of History at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay.
