Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Between the end of the Opium War in the 1842 and the establishment of the People's Republic in 1949 China, long the most prosperous and sophisticated country in the world, was subjected to the military, economic, and political domination of Western imperialism. The old dynastic system was overthrown in 1911, and in 1921 the Communist Party was formed, which led the revolutionary struggle over the next three decades. Since the founding of the PRC China has pursued its distinctive path of socialist construction, a challenging and often contentious process which is still unfolding today. This volume traces the crisis of Old China and the course of the revolutionary struggle up to 1949, and follows the development of New China through the era of Mao Zedong's leadership, the launching of reform under Deng Xiaoping, and the beginning of a new era under the leadership of Xi Jinping. China's use of market mechanisms to develop the productive economy has generated contradictions as well as dramatic growth, and China has achieved great things in education, health care, and the provision of other social services. But the process of socialist construction remains an unfinished and ongoing venture, and the future of the revolution is very much a work in progress.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: No Jacket as Issued. AB4 - A paperback book SIGNED by Rick Bass (page 62), Naomi Shihab Nye (page 91), Marion Winik (page 135) on their respective page in very good condition that has some bumped corners, light discoloration and shelf wear. Foreword by Leon Hale. Illustrations by Rolf Laub. Contributions by Pete Barthelme, Steven Barthelme, Rick Bass, Michael Berryhill, Martha Boethel, H.R. Bratton, Teresa Kyle Cage, Charles Clawson, William Cobb, Ben Ezzell, Adelaide Ferguson, Lionel G. Garcia, Gunnar Hansen, Michael Hargraves, Martha A.

Selections of nonfiction columns for State Lines a weekly feature of Texas Magazine, the Sunday supplement to the Houston Chronicle. 8.5"x5.5". 223 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. "There is a universality of humankind," writes one of the authors of the lines within this book. "A little town in South Texas is the same as a little town in John Donne's England. . . ." And so it is that these stories of moments and scenes and events in the state of Texas transcend the state lines and represent a state of mind. Colorful characters and ordinary folk alike fill the small towns and city streets of these fifty-two vignettes, which unfold with humor, poignance, understatement, or stark relief. The elements of real life emerge in the stories of childhood and growing up, of getting old and dying, of walking on ancestral lands and carving names in towering tree trunks, of high-school-prank blocking of traffic in a slower-paced Houston, of bookmobiles, remembered pets, and pecan pie. These superbly crafted pieces, by various authors, represent the best of the nonfiction columns of State Lines, a weekly feature of Texas Magazine, Sunday magazine of the Houston Chronicle. Texas is an underlying element in them all - "not flashy and intrusive," editor Ken Hammond tells us, "but there." Grounded in personal experience, each story goes beyond the commonplace or the obvious, to make a point and offer depth. The provocative lines of Rolf Laub's art add a twist-of-lemon humor that makes this collection a treasure not to be passed up. There. We've described the treasure without once using the word essay. Houston Chronicle columnist Leon Hale's wryly inviting foreword will tell you why we shouldn't have done that. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Laub, Rolf (illustrator). Signed by Author. …
