The War in Words is the first book to study the captivity and confinement narratives generated by a single American war as it traces the development and variety of the captivity narrative genre. Kathryn Zabelle Derounian-Stodola examines the complex 1862 Dakota Conflict (also called the Dakota War) by focusing on twenty-four of the dozens of narratives that European Americans and Native Americans wrote about it. This six-week war was the deadliest confrontation between whites and Dakotas in Minnesota's history. Conducted at the same time as the Civil War, it is sometimes called Minnesota's Civil War because it was--and continues to be--so divisive. The Dakota Conflict aroused impassioned prose from participants and commentators as they disputed causes, events, identity, ethnicity, memory, and the all-important matter of the war's legacy. Though the study targets one region, its ramifications reach far beyond Minnesota in its attention to war and memory. An ethnography of representative Dakota Conflict narratives and an analysis of the war's historiography, The War in Words includes new archival information, historical data, and textual criticism.Binding Type: Hardcover

Works as expected for it's intended purpose.
Color: Black, Size: Upgraded Base-1 Panel
This room divider was easy to put together and is sturdy enough so it wont tip over if it's bumped.
Included instructions weren't very clear and some parts weren't labeled, but once you figure out how to put it together
it works as expected. The material is a bit wrinkled so if that is a concern you can iron it prior to installation. The size is fine for a smaller room and the thickness of the material is fine for it's intended use.

It’s ok.
Color: Beige, Size: Upgraded Base-4 Panel
It works, but not a great product. The cloth is super thin, so do not expect to use it to block noise. Wants to bent and tilt with little effort to make it so. Will not stand straight. It is a good color though.

Too Short & Skewed Foot. Easy Build & Good Material.
Color: Black, Size: Upgraded Base-1 Panel, Color: Black, Size: Upgraded Base-1 Panel
The 3 partitions I purchased were of good material but were shorter than described and the "feet" on one end of all 3 partitions was skewed a few degrees so I cannot butt them together side by side. PHOTO #1: you see me who is 63.5 inches in my shoes standing next to the 72 inch described partition minus the wheels so it is fair to say it should be 70 inches. But even so, 70 inches minus 63.5 equals 6.5 inches that should be above my head and should not include the tip of the pole and a 6 inch gap below. PHOTO #2: shows the gap when a 90 degree good end is butted against the skewed end. Good material and easy construction but just make it taller and fix the jig that skews the bottom bracket weld.
