Books by Bill Hayton

2. Bill Hayton, The South China Sea: The Struggle for Power in Asia .  If you wish to be convinced that no one has much of a good claim to the Spratlys, this is the place to go.  The best guide to current disputes.

That is from Bill Hayton's new book — Vietnam: Rising Dragon — which I found informative and insightful on virtually every page.  Recommended.
