Unsweet revenge. 511 0 $a Read by Robertson Dean. 520 $a Based on a decade of research and on interviews with many of Mao's close circle in China who have never talked before--and with virtually everyone outside China who had significant dealings with him--this is the most authoritative life of Mao ever written. It is full of startling revelations, exploding the myth of the Long March, and showing a completely unknown Mao: he was not driven by idealism or ideology; his intricate relationship with Stalin went back to the 1920s, ultimately bringing him to power; he welcomed the Japanese occupation; and he schemed, poisoned and blackmailed to get his way. After he conquered China in 1949, his secret goal was to dominate the world. He caused the deaths of 38 million people in the greatest famine in history. In all, well over 70 million Chinese perished under Mao's rule--in peacetime. This entirely fresh look at Mao will astonish historians and the general reader alike.--From publisher description. 600 10 $a Mao, Zedong, $d 1893-1976. 650 0 $a Heads of state $z China. $v Biography. 650 4 $a Books on compact disc, Unabridged. 700 1 $a Halliday, Jon. 700 1 $a Dean, Robertson. 939 $a 5766176 941 $a 1 945 $a cdab 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20150619011215.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C2F1718E2B0E11DE8F715E08A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
