Village life along the Burma Road and the China-Burma border, recorded by American servicemen: women at looms and thread-winding tools, children in stilt-house doorways, and an elder smoking a cheroot. Bamboo rafts, thatched shelters, and a suspension bridge crossing round out this portrait of the hill communities Allied troops lived among.
