In 1908 at the age of two, Henry Pu Yi ascended to become the last emperor of the centuries-old Manchu dynasty. After revolutionaries forced Pu Yi to abdicate in 1911, the young emperor lived for thirteen years in Peking’s Forbidden City, but with none of the power his birth afforded him. The remainder of Pu Yi’s life was lived out in a topsy-turvy fashion: fleeing from a Chinese warlord, becoming head of a Japanese puppet state, being confined to a Russian prison in Siberia, and enduring taxing labor. The Last Manchu is a unique, enthralling record of China’s most turbulent, dramatic years.

The term "Twilight in the Forbidden City" refers to the long period of time when the Emperor had lost all political power but continued to hold court and enjoy his status and title. Emperor Pu-Yi was chosen by Empress Dowager Cixi on her deathbed. Puyi became emperor at the age of 2 years and 10 months in December 1908 after the Guangxu Emperor died on 14 November. Titled the Xuantong Emperor, Puyi's introduction to the life of an emperor began when palace officials arrived at his family residence to take him. On the evening of 13 November 1908, without any advance notice, a procession of eunuchs and guardsmen led by the palace chamberlain left the Forbidden City for the Northern Mansion to inform Prince Chun that they were taking away his two-year-old son Puyi to be the new emperor. He ruled off and on from then until China was defeated in 1945.

First published in Chinese in 1964 and then banned by the revolutionaries ten years later, this remarkable autobiography relays the story of a man who served twice as emperor of China, once as emperor of the Japanese puppet state in Manchuria, and then underwent a complete re-education in the prisons of the Communist Chinese government, finally leading a life as an ordinary citizen. Placed on the throne in 1908 at the age of two, Aisin-Gioro Pu Yi became the tenth ruler of the Ch'ing Dynasty and the last emperor of China. Forced to abdicate four years later but permitted to remain in the Forbidden City until the Ch'ing court lost power in 1924, Pu Yi spent his youth surrounded by the eunuchs, princes, cooks, consorts, tutors, and decadent, often wild excesses of the Imperial Palace. Recounting those early days, Pu Yi then describes his installation by the Japanese as puppet emperor in Manchuria, the defeat of Japan, his imprisonment in the Soviet Union, and his eventual forced return to the People's Republic of China in 1950. Re-educated in Chinese prisons, Pu Yi learned how to dress himself, work on an assembly line, and criticize his former uselessness and pride. Pu Yi ends the account with his release from prison--pardoned by the Communist Party--and the beginning of his new life as a gardener and then as a researcher of literary and historical materials. This fascinating account not only depicts an empire in the throes of death and the zeal of a new-born regime, but also reveals the tragic story of a man who was a helpless subject of family and government turmoils and not really a ruler at all.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was the Emperor apparent of the Ch’ing Dynasty. I refused an imperial summons from the Forbidden City delivered by the Grand Councillor. My family was humiliated by my refusal to obey the imperial edict. However, I was told several years later that it was agreed to waive all protocol and allow my wet nurse to carry me to the palace. #2 The first year of my reign showed the high officials the difficulties that were coming. The word defeat appeared frequently in the official history of the Ch’ing Dynasty, and the more times it appeared, the more it indicated the intensity of the approaching storm. #3 The Wuchang uprising of October, 1911, had sparked off responses from revolutionaries all over the country, and when the Manchu commander in chief of the imperial forces proved incapable of directing the modernized Peiyang Army to resist the Republican forces, my father as Prince Regent had no choice but to recall Yuan Shih-kai from retirement. #4 Yuan Shih-kai, the political favorite of all parties, was able to force my father, the Prince Regent, into retirement. He took over the palace treasury and compelled the high officials and princes to contribute money for the support of the Army.
