China's Twenty Years of Civil War Chronicle

A long review traces the Chinese civil war from the Kuomintang and Communist split through three phases. It notes the 1927 split, the Long March, and the 1937 reconciliation against Japan, followed by postwar power struggles and the rising Communist influence in Shensi Yenan and beyond. The piece reflects on the persistence of feuding factions, the drift toward a modern state, and the cultural upheavals driven by Western influence and internal reforms.
