The evil genius behind MAO - & his legacy of terror in peopla's China
GREAT USED CONDITION
LARGE PAPERBACK (weighing 800kg, 560 pages)
* Kang was China's equivalent to the Soviet Union's Beria, internal security chief and master spy. By the nature of his work--political intrigue, assassination, murder--the covert life of a man like Kang does not easily yield its details to a biographer. But Byron (pseudonym of a Western diplomat stationed in Beijing) and collaborator Pack have overcome the obstacles to write a masterful study of Chairman Mao Tse-Tung's evil genius. While the plotting, treachery, shifting alliances, and sexual entanglements make for a gripping tale, this book is far more than a spy thriller. Byron knows China's history, its politics, language, and ways, and this sure familiarity with the broader background gives the book a solid ring of authenticity. The book reprises much of the same territory as Roger Failgot and Remi Kauffer's The Chinese Secret Service (Morrow, 1989), a competent book by non-China specialists. The Claws of the Dragon is clearly the better book. Recommended to specialists and general readers, though the latter may find the cast of characters--hundreds of them--daunting.
