About This Book
Mao: The Unknown Story is a revisionist 2005 biography of the Chinese communist leader Mao Zedong (1893–1976) that was written by the husband-and-wife team of the writer Jung Chang and the historian Jon Halliday, who detail Mao's early life, his introduction to the Chinese Communist Party, and his political career. The book summarizes Mao's transition from a rebel against the autocratic Kuomintang government to the totalitarian dictator over the People's Republic of China. Chang and Halliday heavily cover Mao's role in the planning and the execution of the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution. They open the book by calling him "Mao Tse-tung" instead of "Mao Zedong", which is the Wade-Giles romanization spelling of his name, while "Mao Zedong" is the modern, official Hanyu Pinyin spelling.
