520    "Weaving together environmental and social history, David 
       Biggs offers an innovative history of the impact of war on
       central Vietnam in the long twentieth century, from the 
       imposition of French colonial rule in 1885 to the end of 
       American military involvement in 1973. The long history of
       conflict around the city of Hûé produced belts of 
       degraded lands and village societies deeply marred by the 
       demands of war or periods of conflict. Once military units
       occupy a space, they change it in physical, legal, and 
       cultural terms so that even long after the troopers leave,
       their footprints continue to shape patterns of land use 
       and local memories of place. There are tombs, cemeteries, 
       and war monuments; and there are the spaces in between, 
       the subterrains of "wilderness" haunted by ghostlike 
       presences of suspected chemical or munitions hazards. 
       Digging below the surface, one risks being maimed by 
       unexploded ordnance, getting ill from toxic chemical 
       residues, or perhaps worst of all, being haunted by the 
       ghosts of war dead who died violently or did not receive 
       proper burials. Critical to this study are previously 
       little used archives of maps and images created by 
       technologies developed at the same time as the Indochinese
       wars, 1945 to 1975: aerial photography, high-altitude 
       photography, satellite photography, and satellite-based, 
       multi-band scanning. In this richly illustrated book, 
       author David Biggs uses these new kinds of imagery to 
       reveal the impact of war in the land"--|cProvided by
