"May Mayko Ebihara (1934-2005) was the first American anthropologist to conduct ethnographic
research in Cambodia. Provides a remarkably detailed picture of individual villagers
and of Khmer social structure and kinship, agriculture, politics, and religion. The
world Ebihara described would soon be shattered by Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge. Fifty percent
of the villagers perished in the reign of terror, including those who had been Ebihara's
adoptive parents and grandparents during her fieldwork. Never before published as
a book, Ebihara's dissertation served as the foundation for much of our subsequent
understanding of Cambodian history, society, and politics"
