Description

A Narrative of the Recent Events in Tong-King is a historical account of the French military campaign in the northern region of Vietnam, written by Henri Cordier in 1875. The book details the events leading up to the conflict, the battles fought by the French army against the Vietnamese forces, and the eventual French victory and annexation of the region. It also provides insight into the political and social conditions of Tong-King during this time period, including the role of the Chinese in the region. Cordier, a French sinologist and historian, draws on his extensive knowledge of the region and its history to provide a comprehensive and detailed account of the conflict. The book is a valuable resource for those interested in the history of Vietnam and French colonialism in Southeast Asia.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
