| The best book is in major bookstors now: it is The Tiananmen Papers. It is best because it is official PRC material, and it is a fairly complete (and unusual) record of how things looked from the inside of the PRC leadership. in Canada you should also be able to find Jane's Special Report: China in Crisis. Done near the time, it deals with the military aspects of what happened, naming names of who was for, who was against crushing the rebellion, and the fate of each person. Janes is a British firm that does military analysis. There are many other books, and you will find a section of them in any major bookstore. Also, there are sections of many contemporary China books, including those from people who think China is best reformed by ignoring its many indescretions. But they clearly lable this indescretion. For example, Thomas Mann About Face. |
