Amidst the revolutionary euphoria of August 1945, most Vietnamese
believed that colonialism and war were being left behind in favor
of independence and modernization. The late-September
British-French coup de force in Saigon cast a pall over such
assumptions. Ho Chi Minh tried to negotiate a mutually advantageous
relationship with France, but meanwhile told his lieutenants to
plan for a war in which the nascent state might have to survive
without allies. In this landmark study, David Marr evokes the
uncertainty and contingency as well as coherence and momentum of
fast-paced events. Mining recently accessible sources in
Aix-en-Provence and Hanoi, Marr explains what became the largest,
most intense mobilization of human resources ever seen in Vietnam.
