Title: Soviet Russia in China - A Summing Up at Seventy
by Chiang Kai-Shek

Publisher: Farrar, Straus and Cudahy
Year: 1957

394 pages; folded maps

Used hardcover book with dust jacket in Very Good to Good condition. Dust jacket is torn and missing small pieces. Book covers and spine Very Good. Pages Very Good. Owner's signature and a stamp on front flyleaf.

Despite the title, I would say, after quickly skimming the book, that this is less about the Soviets and more about the Communist Chinese victories over the Nationalist Chinese (led by Chiang Kai-Shek) in the 1930s and 1940s. In a subtle and veiled way it is, perhaps, a septuagenarian's answer to the question, "What happened? How did I lose this country?"

The title, which does not contain "Communist" or "Mao" is Chiang's refusal to acknowledge the usurpers.

A good Cold War book for those interested in China.
