About This Book
"A milestone in Western studies of China" -- John K. Fairbank
In this masterful, highly original approach to modern Chinese history, Jonathan
D. Spence shows us the Chinese revolution through the eyes of its most
articulate participants - the writers, historians, philosophers, and
insurrectioinists who shaped and were shaped by the turbulent events of this
century. By skillfully combining literary materials with the more conventional
sources of political and social history, Mr. Spence provides an unparalleled
look at China and her people and offers valuable insight into the continuing
conflict between the implacable power of the state and the strivings of China's
artists, writers, and thinkers.
"Absolutely rist rate; it is adventurous in form, scrupulous in content,
passionate in its revelation of complex human drama." --Saturday Review
"With a novelist's flair for life and a historian's grounding in fact... there
is no other work to match this in sweep, vivacity, and humanity." --Library
Journal
