Scope and Contents
Most of the material in this Unit was gather in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The material covers all aspects of Vietnam and the United States conflict in the region. All but a few of the manuscripts are in English; manuscripts in other languages include French and Vietnamese. The material is in fair to good condition. Unit 14, Manuscripts, of the Douglas Pike Collections consists of manuscripts on Vietnam or Vietnam-related subjects sent to Professor Pike while he was at the University of California at Berkeley. Some of the manuscripts were sent for comment while others were sent to become apart of the Indochina Resource Center. In many cases, the manuscript has since been transformed into a book. Scholars should consult the Texas Tech University Library Catalogue system to see if the manuscript they seek is listed in the catalogue.
Biographical / Historical
Professor Pike was born in 1925. He served as a journalist in the Army during World War II (in the Pacific Theater of Operations) and during the Korean Conflict. He earned degrees from the University of California-Berkeley and American University. He served as an FSO in Taiwan, Korea, Lebanon, and Vietnam. In 1982 he began teaching at UC-Berkeley and in 1997 moved Texas Tech University. Professor Pike housed and supported the Collection until 1982 when he moved it to Berkeley. It remained there until 1992 when Berkeley considered discontinuing its support for the Indo-China Studies Project. After being approached by Professor Pike, Dr. James Reckner, Director of the Vietnam Center at Tech, and Dr. David Murrah, Assistant Director of Libraries for the Special Collections, worked together to bring the Collection to the Archive in 1994.
