Tungking (1884) is a historical book written by William Mesny. The book is set in the late 19th century and describes the author's experiences in Tungking, a region in northern Vietnam. Mesny, who was a British adventurer and a soldier, lived in Tungking for several years and became familiar with the local culture, customs, and politics. The book provides a detailed account of Mesny's travels and adventures in Tungking, including his encounters with the local people, the French colonial forces, and the Chinese imperial army. Mesny also describes the geography and natural resources of the region, as well as its history and political situation. Throughout the book, Mesny provides insights into the complex relationships between the different ethnic groups in Tungking, including the Vietnamese, Chinese, and French. He also discusses the impact of colonialism on the region and the struggles of the local people to maintain their independence and cultural identity. Overall, Tungking (1884) is a fascinating and informative book that provides a unique perspective on the history and culture of northern Vietnam in the late 19th century.
