[NONE] 1968. (hardcover) Very good in very good dust jacket. 152pp. 8vo. The record of the authors' (3 others Canadians also attended) month long visit to the People's Republic of China in 1960, first published in French in 1961 and this translation then issued by Oxford University Press. The two had been restricted to visits to all the 'model' schools, farms, factories, (the show and development theatre). Both men knew this was propaganda all for show and were aware of the contradictions that the Chinese government hoped were obscured, but had no opportunity to see anything else. Jacket shows light markings and moderate wear, but remains intact. The book is clean, bright, solid, with black and white photographs. Related ephemera laid in. Very good copy of this book that offers a brief look at a China that no longer exists and the early years of the world's third largest economy.
