The road to Dien Bien Phu : a history of the first war for Vietnam / by Goscha, Christopher E.author(CARDINAL)420212;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction: states of war -- The rise of the archipelago state -- Building military force -- The Asian routes of war -- The city at war -- Wiring war -- Policing war -- Trickle economics -- The Levée en masse and war communism -- Of rice and war -- The road to Dien Bien Phu -- Imperial dust: Ho Chi Minh's Associated States of Indochina -- Dien Bien Phu: the changing of Heaven and Earth."On May 7, 1954, when the bullets stopped and the air stilled in Dien Bien Phu, there was no doubt that Vietnam could fight a mighty colonial power-and win. After nearly a decade of war, the country that had been forged in the crucible of the Indochina War had achieved a victory unseen in any other movement for national liberation. In The Road to Dien Bien Phu, historian Christopher Goscha explains the making of this extraordinary battle, telling the first comprehensive history of how Vietnam brought down the French in the Indochina War. Between September 1945, when Ho Chi Minh declared modern Vietnam's birth, and May 1954, Vietnam moved from a decentralized guerilla polity to a single-party militarized state. Goscha illuminates the making of the militarized nervous system that would realize the victory at Dien Bien Phu. But he is also attuned to how society mobilized behind war communism. This mobilization fortified the single-party state and would create modern Vietnam. This book radically changes how we understand both the first Vietnam War and the one the Americans would fight later. Shedding light on a larger arc of communist warfare and statecraft that runs from the former Soviet Union to the communist states of China and North Korea, Goscha tells a global story of how Vietnam came to be" --

Becoming kin : an Indigenous call to unforgetting the past and reimagining our future / by Krawec, Patty,author.(CARDINAL)857709; Estes, Nick,writer of foreword.(CARDINAL)805404;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 195-203).Creation : how we got here -- Colonization : the hunger of Big Brother -- Removal : background noise -- Replacement : the vanishing Indian -- Eradication : the vanished Indian -- Interlude: Flood -- The land : our ancestor -- The people : we are related -- Solidarity : becoming kin."The invented history of the Western world is crumbling fast, Anishinaabe writer Patty Krawec says, but we can still honor the bonds between us. Settlers dominated and divided, but Indigenous peoples won't just send them all 'home.' Weaving her own story with the story of her ancestors and with the broader themes of creation, replacement, and disappearance, Krawec helps readers see settler colonialism through the eyes of an Indigenous writer. Settler colonialism tried to force us into one particular way of living, but the old ways of kinship can help us imagine a different future. Krawec asks, What would it look like to remember that we are all related? How might we become better relatives to the land, to one another, and to Indigenous movements for solidarity? Braiding together historical, scientific, and cultural analysis, Indigenous ways of knowing, and the vivid threads of communal memory, Krawec crafts a stunning, forceful call to 'unforget' our history. This remarkable sojourn through Native and settler history, myth, identity, and spirituality helps us retrace our steps and pick up what was lost along the way: chances to honor rather than violate treaties, to see the land as a relative rather than a resource, and to unravel the history we have been taught"--Book jacket flap.
