Jim Maultsaids third and final book, The Dawn of Victory, Thank You China! is based on his service with the 169 Chinese Labour Corps (CLC) between 1918 1919.There were 96,000 Chinese volunteer in the CLC and their achievements have gone largely unrecognized for 100 years. As Jim Maultsaids diaries and drawings vividly testify, they made a stupendous and lasting contribution both during and in the aftermath of The Great War. He writes Never did I see human beings work as we worked those Chinese boys of ours. In all weathers, the Chinese turned their hands to every kind of task, initially keeping the wheels of war turning and after the Armistice clearing the debris of war and recovering the tens of thousands of anonymous dead.Maultsaids down-to-earth prose and superb drawings capture the unique nature of the CLCs efforts. His admiration for their stoic, indeed heroic efforts is obvious and, thanks to the preservation of these unique diaries, the coolies who toiled so tirelessly can at last receive long overdue credit.The author/artist served for over five years and was there to say goodbye and thank you to all those who served in his unit.

How do you solve a 3000 year old mystery when there is no written history at the time? Pre-Shang Ancient China had no recorded history except that found on drawings, urns, and pottery. Thus four young persons use the Art field to decipher the events in question. As they get near the truth they risk life and limb unexpectedly incurring the wrath of an international terrorist group. Their association with a benevolent Asian Art Master is a great boost to finding their answers, and the two women are surprisingly "channeled" by twin sisters of ancient Asian Royalty. Dodging criminal elements as the evidence begins to mount and finding a whole new subculture, these four, sharp young people realize they are on the right track…….and it all starts with a mysterious symbol, The China Star! Follow them as they forage, flirt, and fight their way throughout the mysterious Asian past to a modern climax. Just as he did in GREYFOREST, let author Ron Michaels take you through a sweeping romantic adventure with a surprise ending. "The news reports that night stated that a major star in the universe had burned out. A star that had some reference in ancient Chinese lore; a star that was called, “Sisters”".

The first Westerner to meet Mao Tse-tung and the Chinese Communist leaders in 1936, Edgar Snow came away with the first authorised account of Mao's life, as well as a history of the famous Long March and the men and women who were responsible for the Chinese revolution. Out of that experience came Red Star Over China, a classic work that remains one of the most important books ever written about the birth of the Communist movement in China. This edition includes extensive notes on the military and political developments in China, further interviews with Mao Tse-tung, a chronology covering 125 years of Chinese revolution and nearly a hundred detailed biographies of the men and women who were instrumental in making China what it is today.

An ex-navy officer performs a daring sea rescue in this international thriller from “one of the best adventure writers today. A master storyteller.” (Clive Cussler, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of the Dirk Pitt adventure series) When Elizabeth Grayson stumbles upon confidential intel while doing medical research in China, her quiet life turns to terror. Imprisoned in a labor camp on an isolated island, the senator’s daughter struggles with her horrifying new knowledge that China is planning an attack against the United States. Worse, scientific advances in her own work may have helped make China’s powerful new weapon against America possible. Matt Connor’s location on a salvage boat in the Pacific Ocean may have landed him the lucrative job of rescuing a politician’s daughter from prison, but once the ex-navy officer has Elizabeth Grayson on his ship, he’s bound with her in a deadly game of survival. With the Chinese government determined to launch a weapon of mass destruction before their secret offensive is revealed, both Matt and Elizabeth’s lives are on the line—along with the fate of the American people. “. . . a thrilling novel of international intrigue . . . A tense and riveting adventure from cover to cover.” —Midwest Book Review

A reconstruction of the Chinese sky of two thousand years ago, based on analysis of the first star catalogue in China and other sources. Presented in six well-sized star maps for 100 BC, it is especially important for the history of astronomy. The Han sky, with five times more constellations than Ptolemy knew, reflects diverse human activities. The way in which constellations were grouped discloses a systematic cosmology, uniting universe and the state. The work of the three Han schools is comparable to Ptolemy's Almagest. With three detailed Appendices on the constellations of the three schools, well illustrated to demonstrate the relation between sky and human society, this book is valuable not only for astronomy historians and sinologists, but in general for scholars interested in the ancient cultures of Asia.

In the 1980s, most Americans scoffed at the idea that the Communist empire could collapse - but Georgie Anne Geyer was already outlining that probability. In the 1990s, the world was stunned by wars that raged across post-Yugoslavia and their viciousness - but Geyer on a trip to Belgrade in 1989, interviewed top officials and anticipated the conflicts. When 9/11 occurred, she used common sense and said, 'This was inevitable - the terrorists had already attacked the World Trade Center in 1993 and criminals always return to the scene of the crime.'Geyer argues that while the United States was being praised everywhere during this era of 'indispensable power' as the 'greatest power the world has known,' it actually had started on the road to decline. It had won the Cold War, but had immediately embarked upon more Vietnam-like small wars of tremendous cost in Iraq and Afghanistan. Across the board, it was no longer paying its way, while its domestic culture was being vulgarized at every turn.This book explains how, when, and where these declines happened. Geyer studies the history of nations and of peoples, observes human nature, particularly as influenced by religion and ideology; and is a close analyst of the acts of men and women when they perceive they have been humiliated by others or by history. She warns Americans and journalists that we must anticipate the changes in the world before they are upon us and that we must employ predictions to strengthen our nation and its principles.
