About This Item
Univ of California Press, 1997. "This original, important, and readable work offers a stimulating new interpretation of the Chinese Revolution and a mass of fresh, interesting evidence. Thaxton's argument breaks with conventional wisdom on a number of significant points and poses important challenges to all extant interpretations of the revolution as a whole. Thaxton's work explodes the simplistic dichotomies that have framed too many discussions of the Revolution itself and of the longer-term relationship between the CCP and the rural population. Salt of the Earth heralds a new post-Cold War era in our understanding of the Chinese Revolution." Clean and tight with crisp text. Jacket has crease on inside flap otherwise fine also. . First Printing. Hard Cover. Fine/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
