Description: China Crosses the Yalu: The Decision to Enter the Korean War - GOOD A044-HN. As a student of history, as opposed to being a historian, I found this book to be a valuable addition to a series that would include such other works from the period after WWII as "This Kind of War" by T.R. Fahrenbach and "The Coldest Winter" by David Halberstam.No one book can capture all of the viewpoints from that period of time, and such would be the case with "China Crosses the Yalu" by Whiting, so one should not expect it to be source of all answers as to Chinese thinking at that time, but it gives much valuable insight in to the economy of China circa 1949, and how well organized the Communists were in terms of getting a government up and functioning in a war-ravaged nation without industrialization outside of Northeast China.
