Called a Technicolor Disney Fantasia by journalist and author Graham Greene, Caodaism combines elements of Christianity, Buddhism, Confucianism, Islam, Taoism, with traditional native beliefs. Created in 1926 in Vietnam, Caodaism grew to become the third largest religion in Vietnam in only a few decades. This book explores Caodaism from its emergence in colonial Vietnam, to its establishment in the United States after the Vietnam War as a result of the Vietnamese diaspora; exploring the history, beliefs, rituals and customs of this little-known religion.
