Wraps. Presumed first edition/first printing. [1], 28 p. Footnotes. Number P-3707 on front cover and title page. Gerald was born on December 17, 1925 and passed away on Wednesday, November 10, 2010. From an on-line posting: Hickey was one of the first US social scientists with in-depth knowledge of Vietnam, both of the lowlands as is shown in his monograph Village in Vietnam and of the Central Highlands, about which he published three monographs, including a two-volume Ethnohistory. His last work was a professional autobiography, Window on a War. His oeuvre stands as a monument of Vietnam Studies before the VSG was ever invented.He was also a somewhat bitter man. He was bitter at the lack of positive influence that he had had in shaping US and to a lesser extent South-Vietnamese ethnic policies and military tactics affecting the Highlanders. As someone who was a firm believer in the justness of the US intervention in Vietnam, he was appalled by the disastrous effects of the war on the Highlanders, including the spraying of Agent Orange and similar chemical warfare methods. He was bitter at the events in the Central Highlands after 1975 and their effects on the Highlanders the harsh suppression of the Highlanders autonomy movement, the sedentarization campaigns, the organized and spontaneous migration into the Central Highlands.He was also bitter at his reception back in the US, especially the rejection of his fully externally funded position at the anthropology department of the University of Chicago, his alma mater, by its faculty. Research in the context of war was then as now a hotly contested topic, but some persons involved in the vote and decision-making told me that in hindsight this should never have happened." Good.
