Cambodia 1975 - 1982

In Cambodia 1975-1982, historian David Chandler provides a new interpretation of the Democratic Kampuchea regime of Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge (1975-79) and the early years of the Peoples Republic of Kampuchea (1979-89). In 1984, when this book was first published, it was one of the few balanced voices amid media reports of incredible brutality. Fifteen years later, it remains an original historical document based on the earliest primary sources/interviews with the Cambodian people themselves.
