 * Listen to this recording of Madam Chiang Kai Shek (Soong May Ling). Consider her voice and use of English. If you are impressed now (21st century), imagine how members of the U.S. Congress must have felt.**

I highly recommended this video on China. It is dated (1967) and comes at a time of great anti-communist furor in the USA. Nonetheless it is a historiography of China's rise to a communist country, and thus provides a fairly good narrative of its history from the late 19th century to Mao's take-over of China. media type="youtube" key="3R6kntniDPI?fs=1" height="385" width="480"
