He and his shipmates spent a harrowing week at sea before drifting to the coast of central Vietnam. With an escort of Vietnamese soldiers, Cai traveled north along the famous "Mandarin Road," meeting governors-general of each province he passed through along his overland journey to Fujian Province in China. Cai documented his experiences in Miscellany of the South Seas (Hainan zazhu), a vivid account of clothing, food, religious practices, government affairs, and other aspects of daily life in early NguyN77;n dynasty Vietnam. Cai's encounters with diasporic Chinese show the Hokkien merchant community's penetration into Vietnamese society, while his warm embrace by NguyN77;n officials illustrates a shared elite world of classical culture across international borders. In this first English translation, Kathlene Baldanza and Zhao Lu provide a comprehensive introduction that puts Cai's account in social, political, and economic context, along with extensive annotation and a glossary. 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Ethnic Studies / Asian Studies$2bisacsh 607 $aVietnam$xDescription and travel$y19th century 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aSOC008020 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Ethnic Studies / Asian Studies 676 $a915.9704 700 $aCai$b Tinglan$f1801-1859,$01414315 702 $aZhao$b Lu 702 $aBaldanza$b Kathlene 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910734401103321 996 $aMiscellany of the South Seas$93513210 997 $aUNINA
