China 1945: Mao's Revolution And America's Fateful Choice - Plot & Excerpts
And, of course, my gratitude to Kathy Robbins, my stalwart agent, and to her helpers in the Robbins Office, whose kindness, understanding, and encouragement were, as they’ve always been, indispensable. Others helped in many ways. I’m grateful to two friends from my days in graduate school, Andrew J. Nathan and Steven I. Levine, both now among the best and most informed experts on Chinese history and politics, for the many important suggestions, criticisms, and corrections they’ve made as the manuscript was in progress, though needless to say, if there are mistakes of fact or judgment in this book, they are mine. My thanks also to Wenyi Zhou, my amazingly smart, gifted, and resourceful researcher at Columbia University; her work was remarkable, as was her calm tolerance of my many urgent questions. My thanks also to Alice Su for her very valuable help with Chinese sources at an early stage of the research; to Jay Barksdale at the New York Public Library and Chengzhi Wang of the Columbia University East Asian Library; to Nancy Hearst, Kati Marton, David Margolick, Edward Jay Epstein, Michael M.
