Description:
Canada: Self-Published, 1954. Book. Good. Paperback. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. 126 pages. "Recounts the step-by-step infiltration of Communism in China until the time was ripe for the final take-over by force. A story not of a benign agrarian revolution but of the unfolding of a ruthless plot strikingly similar to the Red conquest of other lands that have gone behind the Iron Curtain. The author writes with a sense of urgency in the belief that complacency and lack of wide-spread appreciation as to Communist technique are still handicapping the West in meeting the threat of International Communism both at home and abroad." - from front flap. Author was in charge of the hospital in Chungking for over twenty years. Prior owner's name atop title page else unmarked. Average wear..
