Судьба китайского Бонапарта

This is the first book in our country about Chiang Kai-shek (Jiang Zhong-zhen), who for more than 20 years led the regime in China, which was overthrown in 1949 as a result of the people's revolution, and then took refuge with the remnants of his troops on the island of Taiwan. How did he enter the Chinese revolution, first become one of Sun Yat-sen's comrades-in-arms, and then move away from his line? How was the life of Chiang Kai-shek and the fate of his son Jiang Ching-guo, who spent 12 years in the USSR, a Komsomol member of the 20s, who ended his career as the "president" of Taiwan? The author answers these and other questions in a book written in the genre of documentary journalism, in which he uses new, including archival, materials.

The book is of interest to a wide range of readers.
