Red dawn over China : how Communism conquered a quarter of humanity

Dikötter, Frank2026
Book
The history of modern China has long been portrayed as a tale of Communists fighting in the hills for freedom, gradually gaining popular support by taking land from the rich and giving it to the poor. Drawing on a wealth of archival evidence, 'Red Dawn Over China' reveals how unlikely the Party's victory actually was, had it not been for financial and military support from the Soviet Union.
