Diana Lary, one of the foremost historians of the period, tells the
tragic history of China's War of Resistance and its consequences
from the perspective of those who went through it. Using archival
evidence only recently made available, interviews with survivors,
and extracts from literature, she creates a vivid and highly
disturbing picture of the havoc created by the war, the destruction
of towns and villages, the displacement of peoples, and the
accompanying economic and social disintegration. As the author
suggests in this 2010 interpretation of modern Chinese history, far
from stemming the spread of communism from the USSR, which was the
Japanese pretext for invasion, the horrors of the war, and the
damage it created, nurtured the Chinese Communist Party and helped
it to win power in 1949.
