Title: Sure I am a Maoist, this book helped me recover
Review: I first read this book in about 1968 at the age of 9. I read it again in high school and started to grasp more than the word paper tigers. I understood the idea of party politics and it helped me do well in high school political science. Later in life reading it invigorated me along with the bible I started to rebuild my life. I became a left wing survivalist. Now days I think I can see the bitter truth's of idealism mixed with blood and guts that was Mao and his experience. It still inspires me but I would hate to have to believe in it, in it's reality, considering the pain and death behind it. I think it shows that military minds around the world at all ends of the spectrum keep good discipline and we should fault soliders only for ending lives early and causing suffering. No solider does right in action only in word.
