Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of a Visitation of the China Missions: May 22-September 19, 1901 While I visited Central and Southern China, particularly in and about the large stations of Canton and Shanghai, I gave the greater part of my four months in China to the three missions in the north, where the anti-foreign uprising of last year wrought such havoc to our work and where such stupendous problems of reconstruction now confront us. Many will sympathize with the emotions which stirred my heart as i entered the Peking Mission, hallowed to us by the sufferings and death of so many of our Chinese fellow Christians and of all our beloved missionaries who laid down their lives for Christ during the awful summer of 1900. When I think of all that the survivors endured i wonder that their health was not irretrievably shattered. Several, indeed, had been forced to leave before i arrived, invalided home by order of the mission. but others were heroically and self-sacrificingly at their posts, and almost daily and sometimes nightly, too, during the two weeks of my visit there, we studied and prayed together concerning the grave questions which have been forced upon us. Naturally, we took an early opportunity to visit not only the places made memorable by the great siege, but the sites of our former missions work. I say former, for the desolation is complete.

This book was released on 2018-04-10 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Economist Best Book of 2018 A spellbinding narrative of the high-stakes mission that changed the course of America, China, and global politics—and a rich portrait of the towering, complex figure who carried it out. As World War II came to an end, General George Marshall was renowned as the architect of Allied victory. Set to retire, he instead accepted what he thought was a final mission—this time not to win a war, but to stop one. Across the Pacific, conflict between Chinese Nationalists and Communists threatened to suck in the United States and escalate into revolution. His assignment was to broker a peace, build a Chinese democracy, and prevent a Communist takeover, all while staving off World War III. In his thirteen months in China, Marshall journeyed across battle-scarred landscapes, grappled with Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai, and plotted and argued with Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek and his brilliant wife, often over card games or cocktails. The results at first seemed miraculous. But as they started to come apart, Marshall was faced with a wrenching choice. Its consequences would define the rest of his career, as the secretary of state who launched the Marshall Plan and set the standard for American leadership, and the shape of the Cold War and the US-China relationship for decades to come. It would also help spark one of the darkest turns in American civic life, as Marshall and the mission became a first prominent target of McCarthyism, and the question of “who lost China” roiled American politics. The China Mission traces this neglected turning point and forgotten interlude in a heroic career—a story of not just diplomatic wrangling and guerrilla warfare, but also intricate spycraft and charismatic personalities. Drawing on eyewitness accounts both personal and official, it offers a richly detailed, gripping, close-up, and often surprising view of the central figures of the time—from Marshall, Mao, and Chiang to Eisenhower, Truman, and MacArthur—as they stood face-to-face and struggled to make history, with consequences and lessons that echo today.
