Maps, black and white photographic illustrations, 150pp, paperback, lower cover scuffed. "Having graduated from a prestigious prep school, Knowlton and his roommate, Jim, embark upon a year-long trip around the world before attending Harvard and Yale, respectively, in the fall of 1949. The majority of their journey takes place in China, where the boys? travels from Nanking to Shanghai and into western China are soon followed by Mao Zedong?s communist forces seeking to wrest control of China away from the Nationalists. Knowlton skillfully interweaves his observations as a young and often lonely American boy in a strange country with his perspective gained over the decades until his present writing. While China and the American expatriates the young Knowlton meets often awe him, the older Knowlton is aware that the China of his memory is a lost dream.".

Reprint. xix + 432pp. Paperback. "Oil for the Lamps of China (1934) was a best-selling novel when it was first published, just a few years after Pearl Buck's The Good Earth (1931). The hero of the story is a keen, young American businessman who wants to bring 'light' and progress to China in the form of oil and oil lamps, but who is caught between Chinese revolutionary nationalism in the 1920s and the heartless American corporation which has built his career. The title became a catch phrase for expansive American dreams of the vast China market even though the novel itself, written at the beginning of the Great Depression, was skeptical of large business and any supposed American ability to improve China. The author presents a clear portrait of Western idealism versus Eastern pragmatism in the doubly exotic setting of Mainland China before the advent of large-scale industrialization. The portrayal is unflattering to both sides. While some might now regard the more sympathetic treatment of the young American as out of date, others would counter that the picture is both historically and contextually accurate."

Reprint. Black and white line illustrations by G. Sapojnikoff, xvii + 318pp. Paperback. "Four Hundred Million Customers (1937) is a collection of humorous essays and piquant anecdotes underpinned by well-informed insight and highlighted by witty drawings by G. Sapojnikoff. Like a bowl of salted peanuts, these vignettes make you want more. The book was welcomed on its publication as the most entertaining and instructive introduction to the rapidly modernizing people of the new China and their resilient customs. While it has been taught in recent years at the Harvard Business School, the book - or at least its title - has been cited much more than read, usually to illustrate American illusions about the China market. Yet the book has lost none of its still perceptive insights into China, which is now more than triple four hundred million." (Publisher's description).

1st English edition. Translated by Theodore Hughes. xii + 221pp, paperback. "Here for the first time in English is a selection of short stories representing over forty years of the creative output of one of South Korea?s most prominent contemporary writers. Born in what is now North Korea, Lee Ho-Chul makes use of an astonishing variety of literary styles to offer a panoramic view of the devastating impact authoritarian rule, draconian anticommunism, and particularly national division have had on the everyday lives of Koreans in the latter half of the twentieth century. A staunch defender of democracy, Lee was imprisoned by the authoritarian Park Chung Hee regime in 1974. In his award-winning 'Wasting Away', Lee offers a stark, dramatic portrait of the overwhelming sense of despair and frustration felt by one family in the tense aftermath of Park?s military takeover. 'The Deputy Mayor Does Not Go to Take Up His Appointment' turns to the absurd to explode the psychology of fear pervading Korean society under Park?s rule: The protagonist runs madly away from the very soldiers who have come to make him deputy mayor of Masan. From the searing realization of refugees in 'Away from Home' that they will never see their village in the North again to the chilling story of two brothers forced to dig their own graves after being mistakenly identified as North Koreans by South Korean soldiers in 'Birthday Party', Lee unflinchingly probes the depths of the Cold War ideological polarization that has yet to release its grip on those who make the Korean peninsula their home."

xxxvii + 371pp, index, paperback. Signed by the author. "The first book on the inner workings of the Tatmadaw and essential reading for any student of Burma. The key to coming to grips with modern Burma is understanding the country's armed forces, which have dominated all aspects of Burmese life since the 1962 coup that bought them to power. Yet until now, there has been no comprehensive or detailed study of the Tatmadaw as a military institution. Drawing on five years of research in Burma and further afield, including numerous interviews with military specialists and commentators on both sides of the current political divide, Andrew Selth has written the first book on the inner workings of the Tatmadaw. Here is a scholarly and objective account of Burma's strategic environment, its defence policies and threat perceptions, its military doctrine, defence expenditures, arms acquisitions, and combat capabilities. There are separate chapters on Burma's vast intelligence apparatus, and its suspected uses of chemical and biological weapons. Detailed diagrams and maps help illustrate the Tatmadaw's organisation, structure, and order of battle." From the publisher's description. David Steinberg describes it as "required reading for anyone seriously concerned with Myanmar, the Southeast Asia region and indeed with the relationships between India and China.".

Translated by Zhang Ciyun and Jia Yanli. xx + 334pp, notes, bibliography, index, new paperback. "China's rise to world power status has changed the shape of the world. The U.S.-China bilateral relationship is arguably already the most important one for both countries and it embraces issues of global and regional security, economic prosperity, and the environment, among many others. If Americans tend to ignore history, Chinese do not. The five years in the U.S.-China relationship between 1945 and 1950 that are the focus of Professor Zi Zhongyun?s important study are the seedbed of almost everything that has followed in the ensuing fifty years. Zi Zhongyun is one of China?s leading scholars of international relations and an authority on U.S. foreign policy. Her books, essays, and reviews are widely read in China. This is the first of her books to appear in English. 'No Exit? The Origin and Evolution of U.S. Policy Toward China, 1949?1950' offers a fresh and provocative interpretation by an influential Chinese scholar of that critical period of the early Cold War when the United States assumed the role of dominant world power and the Chinese Communists achieved nationwide victory. Using a wide variety of original materials and calling on her profound knowledge of China as well as the United States, Professor Zi skillfully untangles the multiple threads of U.S. China policy. She uncovers the roots of American hostility to the victory of the Chinese Communist revolution and the origins of the continuing Sino-American impasse over Taiwan. Hers is a sophisticated, subtle, and closely argued work of historical scholarship that is essential for anyone interested in the historical roots of contemporary U.S.-China relations." (Publisher's description).

Fourth Edition. Map, xiii + 386pp, new paperback. "This classic account (1952) of the makers of 'New Japan' tells the life stories of a journalist, an ex-Navy vice-admiral, a steel worker, a farmer, and Emperor Hirohito. Frank Gibney was a wartime intelligence officer who became Time magazine correspondent during the American Occupation of Japan. He went on to be a major interpreter of Japan to Americans and America to Japanese, known as a knowledgeable, genial presence in the PBS series Pacific Century. In the late 1940s and early 1950s, Japan was a poor, broken, and troubled society. Many in both Japan and the West assumed that it would always be so. But Gibney reported on Japan in such telling and readable detail that we can see in this book both the now forgotten atmosphere of that time and the basis for the 'Japanese miracle' to follow."

Second edition. Black and white illustrations, 367pp, bibliography, paperback. "Four hundred million Chinese live in proximity to, and are influenced by, the Yangzi River. Just after World War II [Cowles] traveled the gorges in junks, along with a missionary, a military pilot, and a Chinese university instructor. These were the days when trackers in harness pulled the boats upstream, straining along narrow riverside paths, chanting to the beats of drummers. In recent years, Cowles has returned several times, but on the now-popular tourist boats, to contrast his experiences. His descriptions are strong, as are his knowledgeable musings on Chinese history and culture. He writes alarmingly of the dam now under construction and the enormous toll it will take in human and ecological terms. Far more than a travel narrative, this is a major book on an important topic and is recommended for all libraries." Publisher's description.
