Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good+. Good dj. Reprint. [a good sound copy, very slight bumping to lower tips, one-time owner's ink notes regarding date & place of purchase plus brief comment at top of front endpaper, on which there also appears the signature of a previous owner; NOTE also that the pages have a kind of brownish stri…ation lines; the jacket is edgeworn, faded at the spine (but all text still readable), with light soiling and tiny bits of paper loss at several corners, a couple of closed tears internally tape-repaired]. "An Alan Miller Mystery," as were all three books by this admittedly psudonymous author, all of which were published in 1933 and 1934. (This title was originally issued by The Vanguard Press.) Alan Miller is described in the jacket blurb as "that oddity among detectives, a Chief of Polie in a suburban town whose wholesomeness and normalcy are a refreshing contrast to the prevalent crop of supersensitive sleuths." The book itself is described as a "somewhat unusual book -- an intelligent mystery story which has a considerable degree of urbanity and humor intermingled with an exhilarating series of thrilling and puzzling events." (For all those claims, though, it does follow a kind of Philo Vance-y style, by presenting the reader with detailed floor plans of the scene of the crime.) Co-author Yates, who was also quite active as a Hollywood screenwriter, later wrote a few additional mysteries under his own name; his collaborator Marshall apparently did not. The rear jacket flap biography of "Peter Hunt" is pretty funny: while admitting that the name is a pseudonym, it presents a long laundry list of the author's vitae -- schools, jobs (dozens!), etc. (I would tentatively assume these to be Yates's details -- "scenario writer" is buried in the middle of the list of jobs -- but haven't researched this.) It's possible this might have been some sort of book club edition: there is no printed price on the jacket, and the rear-panel blurb announces another title, "Coming Next Month," and in the fine print stating its availability "to members exclusively.".

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Paperback, viii + 316 pages, b&w maps in text, NOT ex-library. Book is clean and bright throughout with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Minor internal creasing; gentle handling wear to the covers. Straight uncreased spine. -- This book offers the first full‑length s…cholarly biography of General He Yingqin, one of the most influential figures in the Nationalist regime. It traces his military and political career from the final years of the Qing dynasty through the rise of the Kuomintang, the Northern Expedition, the Nanjing Decade, and the war against Japan. As Chiang Kai‑shek's close associate, He commanded the National Revolutionary Army during major campaigns, helped consolidate power after the 1927 split with the Communists, and served in high government and military posts during the Second Sino‑Japanese War. The study also examines He's controversial role in the civil war and in the eventual collapse of Nationalist power on the mainland. Drawing on Chinese and Western archival sources, it combines narrative biography with analysis of factional politics, military strategy, and state‑building. The work contributes to scholarship on modern Chinese history by reassessing both He Yingqin's rise and his political and military limitations, situating them within the larger story of Nationalist China's decline.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. A revisionist study of the career of General He Yingqin, one of the most prominent military officers in China's Nationalist period (192849) and one of the most misunderstood figures in twentieth-century China. Western scholars have dismissed He Yingqin as corrupt and incompetent, yet the Chi…nese archives reveal that he demonstrated considerable success as a combat commander and military administrator during civil conflicts and the Sino-Japanese War. His work in the Chinese Nationalist military served as the foundation of a close personal and professional relationship with Chiang Kai-shek, with whom he worked closely for more than two decades. Against the backdrop of the Nationalist revolution of the 1920s through the 1940s, Peter Worthing analyzes He Yingqin's rise to power alongside Chiang Kai-shek, his work in building the Nationalist military, and his fundamental role in carrying out policies designed to overcome the regime's greatest obstacles during this turbulent period of Chinese history. General He Yingqin was one of the most prominent military officers in China's Nationalist period, but he is also one of its most misunderstood figures. Examining both Chinese and English-language sources, Peter Worthing offers a revisionist view of He Yingqin's career set against the era's political, military, and diplomatic events.
