[Kaylee Ding]

Read for a class on 20th century Chinese literature. This provided a broad brushstrokes overview of 20th century Chinese history. Sometimes it seemed overly sympathetic to Mao and the CCP, but given my lack of knowledge in this subject area, it's difficult for me to say for certain. The book was written in an easily digestible manner, even for those who don't usually read history books.

Finally finished this book for my Chinese history class.

1839-1994. Good overview of politics and ideologies by decade in the 20th century. Nanjing Massacre not included.

[Andrew]

Very cool book. Describes how ancient culture shaped current technological, political, and economic progress.
