Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. A real nice clean unmarked 428 page first printing (stated) hardcover Has two black & white photo sections. Phillips gives an extraordinary inside history of the most critical years of American involvement in Vietnam, from 1954 to 1968, and explains why it s…till matters. Describing what went right and then wrong, he argues that the United States missed an opportunity to help the South Vietnamese develop a political cause as compelling as that of the Communists by following a "big war" strategy based on World War II perceptions. This led the Americans to mistaken assumptions that they could win the war themselves and give the country back to the Vietnamese. Size: 10 1/4h x 7 1/2w. Book.

No date, circa 1931. 6 3/4" x 9 1/2." Nineteen pages, complete. Pages and covers are very clean and intact except for light age toning throughout and slightly bumped corner…s. A Near Fine copy. "Sources of Northwest History No. 15." "Reprinted from the Historical Section of The Frontier, a magazine of the Northwest, published at the State University of Montana, Missoula. Vol. XI, No. 3, March, 1931." This issue contains reprinted diary entries kept by Mary Richardson Walker (1811-1897), an Oregon missionary who married fellow missionary Elkanah (also, Elkaneh) Walker (1805-1877), between June 10 and December 21, 1838. The entries contained herein were transcribed by William S. Lewis of Spokane around 1917 who had viewed the original manuscripts in the ownership of the Walkers' son, Cyrus Walker. Most of the pages have printed footnotes, some of which comprise diary entries by missionary Myra Eells (nee Fairbanks; 1805-1878), the wife of missionary Cushing Eells (1810-1893), that were written on the same day as Mary's entries. Mary writes about the her journey west to Waiilatpu, the location of the mission established by Marcus Whitman (1802-1847) and his wife, Narcissa Whitman (nee Prentiss; 1808-1847). In addition to the Eellses and Whitmans, Mary writes of other missionaries including Mr. and Mrs. William H. Gray and Henry H. Spalding (also, Spaulding; 1803-1874) and his wife, Eliza Spalding (nee Hart; 1807-1851). Mary writes about many different subjects including weather, daily routines, various state of her health, riding her horse (she rode most of the journey side-saddle), meeting Indigenous people, geologic formations, soda springs, local towns, arriving at Waiilatpu, lodging arrangements, evangelism, and the birth of Cyrus and taking care of him in his early days. Waiilatpu was the location of the Whitman Massacre, also known as the Tragedy at Waiilatpu, in which the Whitmans and eleven other settlers were killed when a group of Cayuse men attacked the settlement. The Walkers and Eellses were not at Waiilatpu when the massacre happened, and they later moved to Oregon City. Tensions between the Waiilatpu missionaries and Cayuse and Nez Perce tribes had been brewing for years. The tipping point for the Whitman Massacre was a measles outbreak which disproportionately affected Cayuse populations while white settlers remained relatively unscathed (measles and other diseases were introduced by European explorers and settlers to North America which decimated many Indigenous populations on account of the latter not having acclimated immune systems). Upon the outbreak, a group of Cayuse men were convinced that the reason for so many Cayuse succumbing to the disease was that Marcus Whitman, also a physician, was sabotaging them in some manner. The ensuing massacre leveled all of the mission buildings at Waiilatpu. Settlers then demanded that five Cayuse be punished in retribution. A group of five Cayuse men, the Cayuse Five, surrendered themselves in the hopes that it would placate the settlers. The Cayuse Five were tried and hanged for the massacre even though their guilt and court jurisdiction were not established. The Whitman Massacre was a key factor that prompted the Cayuse War.

Hardback. Condition: New. Stabilizing Fragile States: Why It Matters and What to Do About It is a masterclass on intervening to help fragile states stabilize in the face of internal challenges that threaten national security and how the United States can do better at less cost with improved chances of success. Written from the p…oint of view of an on-the-ground practitioner after exceptional government and voluntary service abroad, Rufus C. Phillips III uses his experience to explain why US efforts to help fragile countries stabilize is important to national security.Helping stabilize fragile states has been too much of a poorly informed, impersonal, technocratic, and conflicted process that has been dominated by reactions to events and missing a more human approach tailored to various countries' circumstances. In his book, Phillips explains why we have not been more successful and what it would take to make our stabilization efforts effective, sustainable, and less expensive.Recent US involvements have ranged in intensity and size from Colombia, which did not put US boots on the ground, to massive interventions in Iraq and Afghanistan, which did. The lack of success in Afghanistan and Iraq has tended to dominate the national conversation about dealing with fragile states. Stabilizing Fragile States provides a thorough analysis of what has gone wrong and what has gone right in US involvement. . Stabilizing fragile states is more of an unconventional political and psychological endeavor requiring an operational mindset rather than conventional war or normal diplomacy. . Defines the focus of counterinsurgency not as killing insurgents but as a positive effort to win local people's support by involving them in their own self-defense and political, social, and economic development. . Americans must understand the religious, historical, political, and social context of the host country and be consistent, patient, and persistent in what they do. . Security-force training in host countries must include respect for civilians and the definition by their leadership of a national cause that the trainees believe is worth risking their lives to defend. . Recommends creating a dedicated cadre of expeditionary diplomacy and development professionals in Department of State/USAID and a special training school as an addition to the Global Fragility Act.
