Vietnam 1946: How the War Began Volume 3 Tapa blanda - 2011 - 1st Edición
de Stein Tonnesson; Foreword by Philippe Devillers
Descripción de contraportada
"Vietnam 1946 is a masterful narrative of the immediate origins of the first Vietnam War. It is, by turns, vivid and shocking; it is always immensely revealing. Tnnesson brings forensic clarity to crucial events about which, even now, some sixty years later, fundamental misapprehensions exist. An outstanding work of scholarship of major international importance."--Martin Thomas, author of Empires of Intelligence
"Tnnesson captures brilliantly the 1946 confrontation between two republics: France determined to redeem itself from Axis humiliation by regaining Indochina; Vietnam equally determined to retake independence after eighty years of colonial servitude. Tnnesson also demonstrates, however, that some leaders on each side really wanted a peaceful, mutually beneficial outcome. Descent into full-scale war was not inevitable. This is a carefully researched, clearly written analysis of a vital moment in the 20th century history of both countries. It is also a meditation on the elusive boundary between free will and determinism in human affairs."--David Marr, author of Vietnamese Tradition on Trial, 1920-1945
"Stein Tnnesson's Vietnam 1946 answers the fundamental question about the first of Vietnam's 20th century wars, the one fought against the French: how did it happen? He has written a meticulously researched account which restores their contingency to the events. The first Indochina war, like those that succeeded it, was not inevitable and Tnnesson explains why and how it happened anyway."--Marilyn Young, author of The Vietnam Wars 1945-1990
