'Tales of the River: Journey from the Mekong Delta' is a compilation of the author's reflections spanning past and present, drawn from his various articles and books, all unified by a profound connection to the land and its people that he cherishes. This book not only delves into the thoughts and emotions of an expatriate, but also illuminates the collective pain of a populace enduring relentless upheavals amid what feels like ceaseless conflicts and wars. These tragedies have befallen the amiable inhabitants of a region blessed by nature, boasting a rich and marvelous ecosystem along the banks of the lower Mekong River and elsewhere. Within these pages, it is hoped that you will discover not only echoes of the past but also, perhaps, a concise historical narrative etched by the meandering rivers upon the S-shaped terrain along the far shores of the Pacific Ocean.
