NOTE: Probably just for hardcore students of the Chinese Nationalist period, which a much younger version of me once was.

But no longer; and so my copy of this book is available free to any Goodreader who is willing to pay for shipping, (in the $4-5 range to anywhere in the U.S.). If interested and you have my email, just send a note with the word "Goodreads" somewhere in the text or subject, so I can find in a search. If you DON'T have my email, add a comment on this review with YOUR email, and I'll get back to you to set something up. Happy reading!

You can see other books on my "available free to friends" bookshelf (still under construction); meanwhile, here's a blurry photo with some of the other available titles:

2021-03-17 This was the 2nd book in my honors HS History - Non Western Cultures class my sophomore year. I don't remember liking it much at all. Not easy to read. Not memorable much at all.

Solid collection of readings and primary accounts on the topic. Well suited for developing a relatively comprehensive understanding of the period. It is actually not a long read, being digestible in parts/chapters.
