Description: "The author traces the vicissitudes of Communism in Hong Kong and Guangdong from the inception of the Movement in 1921, through the first united front of the Chinese Communist Party and the Guomindong, the Guangzhou-Hong Kong strike-boycott, the CCP/GMD split, and the eventual dissipation of the Communist movement in the region.

Hong Kong played a significant part in the elimination of Chinese Communists and in the dire struggle for survival of the Movement during and after the anti-Communist extermination campaigns in the early 1930s."--BOOK JACKET.
