The last empress

Madame Chiang Kai-Shek and the birth of modern China

by

Beautiful, powerful and sexy, Madame Chiang Kai-shek was at the centre of one of the great dramas of the 20th century: the founding of modern China, beginning with a revolution that swept away more than 2000 years of monarchy, followed by WWII and ending in eventual loss to the Communists and exile in Taipei.
