It’s brief, 5 hrs and 11 mins, and fairly concise. I myself wasn’t ready to listen to the over 5 hours of audio on this subject, so in that sense, this is kind of a great audiobook - you can learn some about Mao, China, and the beginning of communism across the 20th century, but not be confused or bogged down in excessive detail.

Another fine work by the Captivating History team that wraps up the beginning of the current Chinese administration. The Cultural revolution mainly started through an effort by Mao to recover power and influence.

One of best from Captivating History.

A Good History Audible

I read other versions and it had wrong letters, extra spaces, things like that. I understand that in some older books with a more modest audience, but it does not seem right for this publisher. I have to admit I would like to have seen a conclusion about the winding down of the Cultural Revolution, given its importance.

Informative and concise
