Sparring with Charlie motorbiking down the Ho Chi Minh trail

When the author set off in Vietnam's notorious Ho Chi Minh Trail, he hardly expected to end up on a rickety motorcycle, navagating paths rarely travelled by tourists. With adventure, wit, and an eye for the absurd, he captures the colour and complexity of Vietnam today.

  • "When Christopher Hunt set off in search of Vietnam's notorious Ho Chi Minh Trail, he hardly expected to end up on a rickety, Russian-made motorcycle navigating 5,000 kilometers of paths rarely traveled by tourists and on roads missing from maps. Hunt left the United States expecting to explore the 1,700-kilometer highway that was once the supply route for the North Vietnamese Army. He soon found himself roaming the Vietnamese countryside in need of help and direction. In the process, he found that being an American in Vietnam conjured constant reminders of the past and encountered a country and a people poised precariously between the ancient and the modern. With adventure, wit, and an eye for the absurd, Christopher Hunt goes beyond the newspaper headlines and myths about Vietnam to capture the color and complexity of Vietnam today."@en
