Abstract
The review examines the book “A Brief History of Vietnam” by Bill Hayton, a famous British researcher of the problems of Southeast and East Asia. Despite the brevity of the presentation, the author presented quite fully the historical path of the Vietnamese nation from the period of ethnogenesis to the present day. The author's position, which distinguishes him from many Western colleagues, is that he strives to show the history of the Vietnamese nation not as a continuous history of wars with its northern neighbor. It is characteristic that most of the author’s provisions coincide with the point of view of Russian scientists.
