- Summary
- "During the 1920s the Soviet Union made a determined effort to stimulate revolution in China by sending several scores of military and political advisers there, as well as arms and money to influence political developments. The usual secrecy surrounding Soviet foreign intervention was broken when the Chinese government seized a mass of documents in a raid on the Soviet military headquarters in Peking in 1927. 'Missionaries of Revolution' includes a full history of this adventure and a large selection of documents with full annotation. This two-part book is the most complete in the field."--Book cover, [p. 4].
