The little regarded Taiwan was shown at centre of the Cold War.
This book is based on extensive research in ancient Chinese and
English sources. The author a leading historian of East Asia and
author of A Modern History of Hong Kong (I.B. Tauris). The
relationship between the USA and the People's Republic of China
(PRC) was the defining factor in the Cold War in Asia - the
potentially explosive conflict which, as seen in the Korean War,
brought the world to the brink of nuclear disaster. The PRC had not
become 'Titoist' as some hoped and remained firmly within the
Soviet international orbit. But how did Great Britain and the
Republic of China (ROC) fit into this potentially lethal global
jigsaw? Steve Tsang has illuminated the history of a seemingly
obscure corner of international relations and politics but which
was, to contempories, at the heart of global survival. He has
carried out extensive research in unique Chinese- and
English-language sources, both official and private.
