Beijing, 1950. About very good.. [2],2,109pp. Original printed wrappers. Illustrated. Text in Chinese. Minor spotting and soiling to wrappers, backstrip reinforced with plain paper, circular ink stamp on front wrapper, title page, and one text leaf. Occasional light marginal soiling. Rare Chinese translation of an anti-American propaganda pamphlet written by Soviet author, journalist, and screenwriter Oskar Ieremeevich Kurganov. The work, first published in Moscow, in 1947 argues that Americans invaded Japan during the Allied Occupation following the Second World War, committed numerous crimes against the Japanese people (including the sexual assault of women), and that readers should resist the United States at all costs.
