Soft Cover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: n/a. First Edition. The Railways and Tramways of Viet Nam is the result of two years of research and is the first in-depth English language history of Viet Nam's rail and tram networks, from their inception to the present day. Drawing on both French and Vietnamese archival materials-many only recently made available to foreign researchers-and incorporating over 350 images and maps both in black-and-white and in colour, the book provides a unique insight into the development of rail transportation in French Indochina and the crucial role played the railways during the First and Second Indochina Wars. Bringing the story up to date, it also examines the development of the national railway network since reunification in 1975 and the Vietnamese government's ambitious plans to transform the railway landscape by creating a modern and competitive main-line and urban rail network.
