Abstract

A Maritime Vietnam From Earliest Times to the Nineteenth Century (2024) is a systematic summary of almost all the achievements of more than 40 years of research on Vietnam by the scholar. The great work has led to a comprehensive, complete and convincing overview of maritime Vietnam. Li Tana not only brings new perceptions about Vietnam, but from the maritime approach, the author also effectively and correctly supplements the general history of Vietnam in the Pre-Modern period.
