The Eagle and the Dragon: United States Military in China (Contributions in Military Studies) Book

"[The] major thrust of [Noble's] book is to describe how the American military man, both officer and enlisted, lived in China. Noble has written a powerful, well-researched and compelling drama of their lives, both on and off duty. . . . His frequent use of heretofore unknown quotations of actual participants makes his history really come alive. There are fascinating photographs, 40 pages of footnotes--many citing diaries, journals, letters, official reports, oral interviews and other esoteric sources of off-the-beaten-path material. . . . This is a pioneer work, since no one before has ever done a social history of the everyday life of soldiers, sailors, and Marines in China from 1901 to 1937. Especially intriguing are the glimpses of everyday life for the Old China Hands. . . . Highly recommended." Military HistoryRead More
