<p>"Young has both enriched and altered our views of the Long March by presenting the experiences and memories of women who participated in this epic yet deeply human event. . . . In examining the lives of these women, we ourselves come to have a richer, more human, and more believable understanding of the Long March. Highly recommended."--Lyman P. Van Slyke, author of Yangtze: Nature, History, and the River</p>
