Negative Positive
Title: Highly Informative
Review: The Birth of Vietnam by Keith Weller Taylor is a must read for those who are into Vietnamese history because it covers in depth the rise and fall of dynasties such as, the Hong Bang, Au Lac, Trieu Da, Trung, Ba Trieu, Ngo, and Dinh, though the Trung and Ba Trieu were more like brief insurgencies rather than dynasties, and also the Chinese dynasties in Vietnam such as, the Qin, Han, Tang, Liang, Sung, Yuan (Khubilai Khan Mongols), and Ming. It also covers empires such as Funan, Chenla, and Lin I later called Champa, and the flowering of Buddhism in Vietnam. And since so much research went into the book, it makes a must read for Vietnamese history enthusiasts.
