A Glimpse of life in a Thai refugee camp

This is a kid's book but it gives a brief informative overview of the situation of the Vietnam War and it's far reaching effects such as and the displacement of the Hmong people. It has lots of colorful photos and profiles a few individual cases. This is a good book for adults who are unfamiliar with the Hmong people. Mace Goldfarb is a pediatrician who was a volunteer at the Ban Vinai Refugee camp in Thailand in 1979. Goldfarb indicates that he is also the son of displaced persons.
