Title: Uniquely Vietnamese
Review: Thank you Quang and Marjorie for writing this book. There are hundreds of books about the Vietnam war, but so few about its people. This book is a rare peek into the Vietnamese culture and religion.Quang's religion is one of 2 uniquely South Vietnamese religions. American readers may see the stories he tells as superstition but they are true and part of our experience. I was only 10 years old when I came to the U.S. I remembered stories such as the ones told.I only wish the printer had put in the accents for the Vietnamese words, and that Marjorie hadn't turn all the Vietnamese names around. This is important because some of the figures in Quang's religion are historical figures.This book has a place of honor on my shelf and I intend to purchase multiple copies for my brothers and sisters.
