Looks at the connections between “the age of revelations†(1925-1934) in French Indochina and the “age of diaspora†(1975-present) when many Caodai leaders and followers went into exile. Structured in paired biographies to trace relations between masters and disciples, it focuses on five members of the founding generation and their followers or descendants in California.
