It was the trial of a century in colonial Hong Kong when, in
1931-33, Ho Chi Minh - the future President of Vietnam - faced down
deportation to French-controlled territory with a death sentence
dangling over him. Thanks to his appeal to English common law, Ho
Chi Minh won his reprieve. With extradition a major political issue
in Hong Kong today, Geoffrey C. Gunn's examination of the legal
case of Ho Chi Minh offers a timely insight into the rule of law
and the issue of extradition in the former British colony.
Utilizing little known archival material, Gunn sheds new light on
Ho Chi Minh, communist and anti-colonial networks and
Franco-British relations.
