A Great Book, UNBOUND By Dean H. King

Unbound - This interesting and important books describes, truthfully and factually, the Long March of the Communist Party, somewhat through the eyes (or at least the story of) the thirty women who started the Long March with the thousands of men.

It includes such heroic women as Deng Yingchao [Click here to see her Wikepedia Biography],

Some of My Favorite Books

Here are some be of my "all time favorite books and some thoughts about each.

Anna Karenina  by Leo Tolstoy. This book, set in Tsarist Russia, is the definitive commentary on male-female relationships. All types, for all different reasons. Despite the geographic and temporal differences, the compromises we make as well as the passions we all seek are brilliantly set forth. While I prefer non-fiction to fiction, and modern to older books, this book had me addicted like an addict to the pipe.
