China Mirage had a lot of facts that I had wrong and had to relearn.

The book was a little slow at first, but picked up steam.what I really keyed on was where the Roosevelts got their fortunes. FDR was particulary mesmerized by the Chinese and as a result was led astray and hoodwinked over Chinese policy. His administration, for the most part was solidly behind Chiang Kai Shek, whose family were master deceivers. And FDR and the Admin.were against Mao Zedong,whom they considered a Communist, but was that the reality? Finally, how could you not enjoy a book by James Bradley, the author of Flyboys and Flags of Our Fathers?
