Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Khmer Rouge Purge: A Villager's Journey Through the Killing Fields of CambodiaWhen the Khmer Rouge took control of Cambodia, they promised a new society. What they delivered was terror. Families were torn apart, children indoctrinated, and millions of lives destroyed in the name of revolution.In this powerful memoir, survivor Tom Hout Chow shares the story of life as an ordinary villager caught in one of history's darkest regimes. Through famine, forced labor, and the silence of the Killing Fields, he reveals the pain of a people stripped of freedom, dignity, and even family bonds.Yet this is more than a story of loss. It is also a testimony of resilience. Chow shows how determination, faith, and the hunger to learn became lifelines that no tyrant could take away. From the villages of Cambodia to the refugee camps of Thailand, his journey is a reminder that dictators can destroy bodies, but they cannot kill the human spirit.The Khmer Rouge Purge is at once a historical witness, a personal journey, and a call to remember-so that the world never repeats the mistakes of the past.
