The National Revolutionary Army, organized with Soviet assistance, enabled Chiang Kaishek to consolidate his government by the Northern Expedition of 1926-1928. Simon, an avid globe-hopper who believes legislators travel too little, not too much, crossed paths with virtually every major figure of his time and leaves out none of them: David BenGurion, Anwar Sadat, Menachem Begin, King Hussein, Benjamin Netanyahu, Yasser Arafat, Margaret Thatcher, Helmut Kohl, Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi, Chiang Kaishek, Nelson Mandela, the list goes on. As communists advanced in China, some missionaries advocated assistance to Chiang Kaishek in the vain hope of winning a military victory, while others edged away from Chiang in the vain hope of establishing decent relations with Mao Tse-tung. |
