The amazing cult book about the incredible load-carrying motorbikes of Vietnam. Now in a new and updated edition.



In Vietnam the motorbike is the main mode of transport, not only for people but for every imaginable and unimaginable product and produce. Without the motorbike the economy would grind to a halt. Bikes of Burden shows in 182 stunning, full colour photographs how the motorbikes, the drivers and their loads ride around the cities and countryside in acts that defy your wildest imagination. A photographic record of life in modern-day Vietnam. Colourful and quirky, it captures everyday life at street level, the life of a city and its people.

" A must-read for anyone interested in Vietnam today." Senator Max Baucus, US Senate Committee on Finance
