Description

In October 1934, the Chinese Communist Army found itself facing annihilation, surrounded by hundreds of thousands of Nationalist soldiers. Rather than surrender, 86,000 Communists embarked on an epic flight to safety. Only thirty were women. Their trek would eventually cover 4,000 miles over 370 days. Under enemy fire they crossed highland awamps, climbed Tibetan peaks, scrambled over chain bridges, and trudged through the sands of the western deserts. Fewer than 10,000 of them would survive, but remarkably all of the women would live to tell the tale. Unbound is an amazing story of love, friendship, and survival written by a new master of adventure narrative.

- Verified Buyer
In addition to telling the story of the few women who endured it, this book gives an excellent chronology of the Long March itself, while reminding the reader of the almost unimaginable turmoil that China endured during the twentieth century. The humanity of the female Cadres is set against the "ends justify the means" principles of the Communist Party.Dean King brings his usual direct, readable style to this book. I highly recommend Unbound to anyone who enjoys history that is both clear and entertaining.
