SUN YAT-SEN: The Man Who Changed China

Today, millions of Chinese revere Sun Yat-sen as ‘father of the nation.’ Though he spent the better part of his life outside of China, much of it as a peripatetic fund-raiser, no one was more single-mindedly devoted to the idea of a liberated and modern China than this missionary-educated son of peasants. Despite repeated failures and disappointment, Sun refused to abandon his vision of a Chinese revolution. Of all modern China’s leaders, none are more of an enigma than Sun Yat-sen. In these pages he emerges as a sometimes tragic but most often courageous and many-sided figure. Knowing him, one knows more of modern-day China, with all its conflicts, paradoxes and visions of a stable future.
