The lives of the Ye family-Ye means leaf in Chinese-reveal the human side of the large-scale events that shaped modern China: the vast and destructive rebellions of the nineteenth century, the economic growth and social transformation of the republican era, the Japanese invasion during World War II, and the Cultural Revolution under the Chinese Communists. Joseph W. Esherick draws from rare manuscripts and archival and oral history sources to provide an uncommonly personal and intimate glimpse into Chinese family history, illuminating the changing patterns of everyday life during rebellion, war, and revolution.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51895899488544,"sku":"NEW0520267001","price":33.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61t88XDkzeL.jpg?v=1782041936","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/ancestral-leaves-a-family-journey-through-chinese-history-0520267001","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
