Chinese Civil War

by Hourly History Book 2 in the History of China series.

4.0(283)

The Chinese Civil War traces the prolonged struggle between the Nationalists and Communists from the breakdown of their alliance in the 1920s to the Communist victory in 1949. It follows campaigns, political mobilisation, the Long March and the uneasy united front against Japan.

The book examines how land policy, military organisation, corruption, inflation and wartime devastation shaped the outcome. It concludes with the establishment of the People’s Republic of China and the Nationalist retreat to Taiwan, a division whose political consequences continued far beyond the fighting.
