Travels in Upper Laos and on the Borders, Pavie 5 of Yunnan and Burma

The Pavie Mission Indochina Papers (1879-1895) (First English translation from 1902)

The report provides an overview of exploration work done in the upper part of Laos and on the borders of Laos and Vietnam, as parts of French Indochina, and of British Burma and China. The various itineraries in Upper Laos cover western areas bordering the British, Chinese and Siamese possessions and constitute a preparation for a definitive settlement with the governments of British Burma and of Yunnan. The maps produced by these professional topographers comprise important areas along the Mekong not yet surveyed until then, the roads towards Siam from Yunnan and Muong Sing and, in general, the Sip Song Pahn Na dependencies of Siam. The book also documents villages of various primitive Kha tribes and mixtures of various races living in this area covered with the mule trails of traders.Volume 2 of this series, Atlas of the Pavie Mission, contains the maps accompanying these explorations.
