This book is full of strange, unexplained anecdotes (the writer saying "the old Beijing was lost" with no elaboration, or the chapter in which it describes the fashion of revolutionary women as "sometimes grim") and glaring typographical errors (the most recent I noticed was Li Zngren). Also THIS IS THE FIFTH TIME THE SAME GRAPH IN CHINESE HAS BEEN SHOWN WE CAN'T READ IT TRANSLATE IT PLEASE WHY SHOW IT FIVE TIMES

This book is shockingly comfortable with making drastic claims about modern China without any sources and it's really jarring, the sections on the civil war itself are fine so far though
