Description: Red Star over China by Edgar R. Snow 1944 Modern Library Hardcover Edition. This is an increasingly scarce copy of Edgar Snow's 'Red Star Over China.' Edgar Snow was an American journalist who followed Mao Tse-tung as leader of the guerilla army during the Chinese Communist Revolution. Edgar Snow follows Mao, Zhou Enlai, Peng Dehaui, Lin Biao, He Long, and the Chinese Red Army in 1936 in their capital of Bao'an before their move to Yan'an. Snow interviews Mao about the Long March in this book. This book remains one of the most influential Western books on China along with Pearl S. Buck's 'The Good Earth.' It remains one of the major sources of the founding period of the Chinese Communist Party. This book is the 4th (1944) Edition of the book but before extensive revisions in the 5th (1968) Edition. It is expected that books with positive or objective slants were frowned upon after World War 2 and before/during the Cold War. This piece of history could be yours. With China in the news, the value of this book could rise substantially. A perfect piece for those interested in China and Chinese history.
