Human Trafficking in Colonial Vietnam is a thorough investigation into the political, diplomatic, and economic context in which the market for women and girls flourished during the colonial period. With its incredible detail drawn from an array of sources - some known to historians and many previously undiscovered - Lessard proves that human trafficking is not a modern concept in Vietnam and indeed has a long history in Indochina. This book will prove essential for the study of human trafficking - both academic and applied. It will be useful for both undergraduate and graduate courses in Asian history, French history, and gender studies. It should be a mandatory read for aid workers who focus on trafficking in Vietnam and China. - Christina Firpo, CalPoly University, International Institute for Asian Studies Newsletter
