About this listen

The Chinese Civil War was a decades-long struggle between the Nationalists and Communists that reshaped China and reverberated across the globe.

This concise yet comprehensive book covers the war’s early battles, the impact of the Japanese invasion during World War II, and the final showdown that saw Chiang Kai-shek’s retreat to Taiwan. Listen about the ideologies and strategies of both sides and explore the global consequences of this war, which marked a pivotal moment in Cold War history.

In this book, you will discover:

  • The political and social turmoil that led to the collapse of the Qing Dynasty.
  • The rise of the Kuomintang and the Chinese Communist Party.
  • The Long March and Mao Zedong’s ascent to power.
  • The impact of foreign intervention from Japan, the Soviet Union, and the United States.
  • The final battles and the founding of the People’s Republic of China.
  • The lasting impact on global politics, particularly the ongoing tension between China and Taiwan

Learn about the complex forces that drove this historic conflict and how it continues to influence international relations today. Perfect for history enthusiasts and anyone looking to understand China’s history and present circumstances.
