Publisher's Synopsis

How The Far East Was Lost: American Policy And The Creation Of Communist China, 1941-1949 is a historical book written by Anthony Kubek. The book discusses the role of American policy in the establishment of communist China during the period from 1941 to 1949. The author explores the various political and military decisions made by the United States government during this time, which ultimately led to the rise of the Communist Party of China and the defeat of the Nationalist government led by Chiang Kai-shek. Kubek analyzes the different factors that contributed to the failure of American policy in China, including the lack of understanding of Chinese culture and history, the interference of American military leaders in Chinese affairs, and the inability of the United States to provide adequate support to the Nationalist government. The author also examines the role of key figures in the Chinese Communist Party, such as Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai, and their strategies for gaining power and support from the Chinese people.Overall, How The Far East Was Lost provides a detailed and insightful account of the complex political and military landscape of China during the mid-twentieth century and the role of American policy in shaping its outcome. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the history of China and the United States' role in its development.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
