Product Description
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 come to a halt. Bikes of Burden shows in 148 stunning, full color photographs how the motorbikes, the drivers and their loads ride around the cities and countryside in acts that defy your wildest imagination.

5.0 out of 5 stars
amazing real life pictures,
By Jarmo Mustonen (Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bikes of Burden (Hardcover)
I just returned from Saigon, and can confirm that daily traffic in Viet Nam is just as Hans Kemp's amazing pictures depict it. I bought a half dozen of this book from a shop near the Rex Hotel, and lugged them home, only to now see I could have much more easily, and at a better price, acquired them via Amazon. They make a great gift book, because every reader without fail will boggle at the shots he took, of what the Vietnamese somehow manage to juggle on their motor bikes. I like the size and the format of the book as well.

Fun Vietnamese picture book,
By Vietnam freak - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bikes of Burden (Hardcover)
We first saw this book in Hanoi and decided we had to have it. Hans Kemp has taken some great photos that really capture the every day sights in Vietnam. The Vietnamese rely heavily on their motor bikes the way we rely on big huge trucks. It is always amazing to see what can be carried by bike. This book has been fun to have on our table and always is a topic of conversation among our friends.
