Product Description

Book Description
On Burke's regular trips to Indochina he becameaware of how the architecture inhabited as much asreflected the region's history. Transfixed bybuildings like the municipal offices built by theFrench in the 1860s, he saw the region as anarchitectural museum, rotting in the humidity anduntouched by economic ambition, and began to tracethe dramatic history and cultural changes in thearea through its buildings, from the influence ofFrench colonialism through the rise of communismand the devastation of the Vietnam War, to theliberation of Cambodia and the dawn of capitalism.
