1 4 y separately published work icon Boat People : Personal Stories from the Vietnamese Exodus 1975 - 1996 Carina Hoang (editor), Cloverdale : Carina Hoang Communications , 2010 Z1768918 2010 anthology autobiography correspondence diary

'The book includes extracts from diaries, letters, and other testimony of former UNHCR officers located in Canada, Indonesia, the US and Australia. Among them is 84-year-old Talbot Bashall, who served as Controller of the Refugee Control Centre in Hong Kong. After so many years, these privileged perspectives on the exodus can finally be shared.

'Carina Hoang has also assembled a powerful collection of photographic images, most of which are published for the first time. They are vital to the book's first objective, which is to preserve the historical record for the education of future generations of the global boat-people diaspora.

'The book's other goal is to tell how the survivors of the exodus have been, on the whole, able to make valuable contributions to the societies that accepted them.' (From the author's website.)
