用户评论
中国离苏联太近,离美国太远
马歇尔是近代史上我最敬重的伟人,不仅能力超强,而且人品出众。这本书非常详细地记述了他参与国共谈判的经历,我认为作者还比较公正,没有刻意偏袒任何一方,算是对我们学过的历史的补充。
本书是对国内历史课本中国共谈判那段历史的极大补充,没想到马歇尔在这段扮演了这么重要的角色
這書可以翻譯引進吧?
正如作者所言,Marshall's China mission is "a story not of possibility and ambition, but of limit and constraint; not of a victory achieved at any cost, but of a kind of failure ultimately accepted as the best of terrible options"。同史迪威一样,马歇尔虽然深知中国国情与KMT痼疾,但过于乐观将美国经验投射于战时中国,而忽略了国共两党及其身后代表国内外利益间不可调和的根源。纵然竭尽全力长袖善舞,但历史的进程终不以个人意志为转移。后人哀之更要鉴之,才能避免覆辙重蹈。
