Mao laid out his poems in a systematic and carefully schematized blueprint to assure that his ideas and aims would be followed long after his own lifetime. This work is indispensable in understanding Mao's thinking and his relationship to the People's Republic of China.Chinese poetry20th centuryHistory and criticismWar in literatureElectronic books.Chinese poetryHistory and criticism.War in literature.895.1/15Ingalls Jeremy1911-2000.871073Wittenborn Allen John871074MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452308003321Dragon in ambush1944521UNINA
