Description

This book explores Taiwan's development from its formal beginnings as a political entity to a home for a Ming-loyalist regime, to a Ch'ing prefecture and province, to its half-century as a Japanese possession, and to fifty years as the home of the Kuomintang-controlled Republic of China.
