With extradition a major political issue today, this examination of the legal case of Ho Chi Minh in colonial Hong Kong offers timely insights into rule of law and extradition issues in general. Gunn sheds new light on Ho Chi Minh, communist and anti-colonial networks and Franco–British relations.
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.
