About this deal

Then what is a book on Chinese history might become what it promised to be: a biography of three most powerful Chinese women and their roles in shaping 20th century China. Ching-ling, Red sister, was able to stay in China after the CCP came to power in 1949, she held several prominent positions in the new government, including Vice Chairman (1949–1954; 1959–1975) and Vice Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress (1954–1959; 1975–1981). May-ling, known as "Little Sister," became Madame Chiang Kai-Shek and first lady pre-Communist Nationalist China. Despite supporting CCP, she even after their victory still lived in a mansion with servants – far from ordinary Chinese and far from equality formally backed by her. Had these two men cared more of China than their own wealth and self-aggrandisement, the history of China would have been different.

Red Sister, Ching-ling, married the 'Father of China', Sun Yat-sen, and rose to be Mao's vice-chair. Some of the data that are collected include the number of visitors, their source, and the pages they visit anonymously.

Sun created his own bank for China but under his name, and listed all its assets in his papers under ‘family affairs’. Little Sister, May-ling, was Madame Chiang Kai-shek, first lady of the pre-Communist Nationalist China and a major political figure in her own right.

Her earlier subjects included Dowager Empress Cixi, Mao Zedong, Madame Sun Yat-sen, and her own family. Trained as a missionary himself in the United States, he found ways for all six of his children to gain American college degrees.
