Oh my; how sad. A gentle spirit. I have several of his books and have turned to them in times of stress.

He had the distinction of being banned by both North and South Vietnam.

Hahn's death has been reported before, but reputable sources are reporting it this time. Enjoyed two of his books.

I have most of his books. For someone who is unfamiliar with him, I would recommend this book...
