About this product

Product Information

Bertil and Hseng Noung Lintner, and their baby daughter, born en route, spent one and a half years travelling through rthern and eastern Burma, from 1985-87. Throughout their account, they describe, with rare and deep insight, the struggle by rthern Burma's ethnic groups against brutal Burmese army rule, and record the decline and fall of the Communist Party of Burma. During their incredibly arduous 2,275 kilometre trek, mostly on foot and at times in great danger, they recorded the history of a forgotten 40-year war, an account which otherwise would never have been committed to paper in such rich detail. Land of Jade further provides poignant descriptions of the efforts of simple ethnic tribes-people to forge lives amid the larger struggles of political antagonists, drug lords, foreign interlopers and assorted other opportunists; a situation that remains painfully relevant to many in diverse locations to the present day.
