Edgar P. Snow fue un periodista estadounidense conocido por sus escritos sobre el comunismo chino y la revolución. Se le reconoce como el primer periodista occidental en entrevistar al líder comunista chino Mao Zedong. Su obra más célebre narra el movimiento comunista chino desde sus inicios hasta finales de la década de 1930. El enfoque de Snow en los acontecimientos políticos y sociales de China proporcionó una perspectiva distintiva de este período histórico crucial, haciendo que sus relatos sean de gran valor.
The first Westerner to meet Mao Tse-tung and the Chinese Communist leaders in 1936, Edgar Snow came away with the first authorized account of Mao’s life, as well as a history of the famous Long March and the men and women who were responsible for the Chinese revolution. Out of that experience came Red Star Over China, a classic work that remains one of the most important books ever written about the birth of the Communist movement in China. This edition includes extensive notes on military and political developments in China, further interviews with Mao Tse-tung, a chronology covering 125 years of Chinese revolution, and nearly a hundred detailed biographies of the men and women who were instrumental in making China what it is today.
