Summary: A superb read
Comment: As far as I could find out, this is the only book dedicated to the history of the island of Taiwan. An excellent read from start to finish, it is fascinating to read how little claim the Beijing Government has on the island and that the international community should hang its head in shame for not giving the island the independent status after the Second World War. No Chinese Government had ever truly ruled Taiwan and even with the coming of Western colonists, the Taiwanese natives were too hostile for anything other than effective control of anything other than the costal areas. I truly recommended that anyone interested in history should read this book.
