Informative and concise
I read other versions and it had wrong letters, extra spaces, things like that. I understand that in some older books with a more modest audience, but it does not seem right for this publisher. I have to admit I would like to have seen a conclusion about the winding down of the Cultural Revolution, given its importance.

Incredible History of a Dark Period
It is a very interesting and very influential audiobook. Many similarities between China's Cultural Revolution and what is starting to be seen and currently encountered in the USA today. Very easy to follow and informative at the same time. Highly recommended too.

The Cultural Revolution
Wow, what an enlightening audiobook on China! The author’s equitable use of individual stories and hard statistics make this book a must-have. It took me a bit to get into it, but once I started I could not stop. I highly recommend this to anyone seriously interested in China.

A Man With Great Ideas.
It’s brief, 5 hrs and 11 mins, and fairly concise. I myself wasn’t ready to listen to the over 5 hours of audio on this subject, so in that sense, this is kind of a great audiobook - you can learn some about Mao, China, and the beginning of communism across the 20th century, but not be confused or bogged down in excessive detail.

Detailed and Confusing.
It is detailed and at the same time, its compression can make the sequence of events a little confusing at times - I mean, because of the ways. This came up a couple of times for me but the one I actually remember was not really following Mao's shift to a military leader. That was kind of sudden in this audiobook.

Fascinating and horrifying
An excellent. A window into Hell. Inhumanity and confusion were arranged by Mao to solidify his power.

Mao's like a military leader
I don't know anything about Mao, and I've been studying long books, so this was pretty much what I was seeming for, something abstract. If you're in the same vessel, just getting started, this might be the audiobook for you, since it is longer and more detailed than an online article.

One of best from Captivating History.
Another fine work by the Captivating History team that wraps up the beginning of the current Chinese administration. The Cultural revolution mainly started through an effort by Mao to recover power and influence.
