Title: Avoid at all costs
Review: This is one of the most overated works of history I have ever read. I have seen better written essays from a teenager. It is written in the style of a tabloid newspaper article. Jung Chang should study Max Hastings, Antony Beevor et al to see what a well written history book looks like. A far better book on Mao is "Mao Tse-tung and the Chinese People" by Roger Howard - check it out in preference to this. AVOID THIS BOOK AT ALL COSTS.
