Der is a work of immense importance for those who wish to comprehend the history of the Hmong people; how they fought along side America and why they live here now. It is a facinating read that lends accurate insights into the Hmong culture and history. Parts of the book made me laugh, cry, or sit in silent awe of the amazing community of people and one particular man called Der. This reviewer has learned important cultural awareness insights from reading DER that no classromm would have taught me or teaches. I would invite Professors who teach Hmong history to read this work. It is my opinion as a cross cultural speaker and author,that this is an important work for those interested in accurate historical truths from the people who live it.
