Stamps of Burma: A Historical Record through 1988 Paperback – March 12, 2008

الوصف

Review "In 1989, writer Min Sun Min ended up in New York, one of the first Burmese dissidents to make it to the West. He was a lone protester, long before human rights and democracy in Burma became international issues, and he began receiving letters of support from all over the world. That aroused his interest in postage stamps and how they reflect a country's historical developments. This book is more than a catalog of Burmese stamps; it embodies a vision for a freer and more prosperous Burma."―Bertil Lintener Read more From the Publisher "In 1989, writer Min Sun Min ended up in New York, one of the first Burmese dissidents to make it to the West.
