The Chungking talks
28 Aug–10 Oct 1945 — Mao flies to Chiang’s capital under American escort; the two men toast each other and sign a unity communiqué neither believes. General Marshall’s year of mediation follows, and fails the same way: both parties would rather risk everything than share an army.
This is one scene of Chapter 10 — The Failed Peace and Manchuria in China in Revolution, 1911–1949.
