Summary
"This study on the forging of Chinese communism in the furnace of the anti-Japanese war focuses on North China, where the Chinese Communist Party first took root and later expanded to conquer China. Whilst the explosive growth of the Chinese communist movement during the war years is a fact, the nature of this expansion remains disputed. Here the author examines a set of interrelated issues that have so far not received comprehensive treatment with regard to the main communist base areas of North China - regions where the CCP secured most of its recruits and where its policy programmes were most severely tested by Japanese military campaigns."--BOOK JACKET.
