In Drums of War, Drums of Development, Jim Glassman analyses the geopolitical economy of industrial development in East and Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War era, showing how it was shaped by the collaborative planning of US and Asian elites. Challenging both neo-liberal and neo-Weberian accounts of East Asian development, Glassman offers evidence that the growth of industry (the 'East Asian miracle') was deeply affected by the geopolitics of war and military spending (the 'East Asian massacres'). Thus, while Asian industrial development has been presented as providing models for emulation, Glassman cautions that this industrial dynamism was a product of Pacific ruling class manoeuvring which left a contradictory legacy of rapid growth, death, and ongoing challenges for development and democracy.

This eloquent memoir records the Civil War experiences of Robert J. Burdette, private in the 47th Illinois Infantry Regiment. From Peoria to Corinth, from Corinth to Vicksburg, up the Red River country, down to Mobile and Fort Blakely, and back to Tupelo and Selma, the 47th marched three thousand miles during Burdette's tour, from March 1862 to December 1864. In a literate voice rare in war memoirs, Burdette speaks of comradeship built and tested, the noise and confusion of the battlefield, the conflicting feelings of witnessing a military execution. Both nostalgic and piercingly immediate, his remembrances evoke the sights, sounds, smells, and above all the inner feelings stirred up by war, from exuberance to terror and from patriotic fervor to compassion for a fallen enemy. Originally published--on the eve of another great conflict--in 1914, The Drums of the 47th is a moving depiction of the inner life of the common soldier. Like Stephen Crane's The Red Badge of Courage, Burdette's book puts a human face on the war and his words speak to all who have served or imagined serving under fire. The introduction by John E. Hallwas provides a biographical sketch of Burdette and a commentary on his engaging Civil War memoir.

WAR DRUMS OF EAGLE KING, is a story of Koch warrior Sukladhvaj, brother of Nar Narayan ruler of the Koch Kingdom during the 16th century. He was Commander-in-Chief of the Koch army and under his leadership the Koch troops achieved devastating victories over the Ahoms, the Kacharies, the Twipra and others as a result of the brilliant strategy and swift hitting tactics used by Sukladhvaj. His deadly tactics and swift victories over his opponents earn him the nickname of Chilarai which means eagle king and his success is partly attributed to the mysterious power of an eagle that he is said to be capable of invoking on rare occasions. During his campaigns Chilarai meets Sankardev, a great religious and cultural reformer and the experience has such an effect on Chilarai that a subtle change takes place in his perception of life and society. He also meets and later on weds the lovely and devoted Kamala. The eagle king is snared during his expedition to Gauda, in a trap laid by the clever Kalapahar, a General of Gauda and then held as a prisoner in the city of Gaur. However, Chilarai charms his way into a position of favor with Sultan Suleiman and his family and as a result he is finally released from captivity. Soon after his release the war drums start rolling out their ominous beat once again.
