The epic, untold story of China’s devastating eight-year war of resistance against Japan
For decades, a major piece of World War II history has gone virtually unwritten. The war began in China, two years before Hitler invaded Poland, and China eventually became the fourth great ally, partner to the United States, the Soviet Union, and Great Britain. Yet its drama of invasion, resistance, slaughter, and political intrigue remains little known in the West.
Rana Mitter focuses his gripping narrative on three towering leaders: Chiang Kai-shek, the politically gifted but tragically flawed head of China’s Nationalist government; Mao Zedong, the Communists’ fiery ideological stalwart, seen here at the beginning of his epochal career; and the lesser-known Wang Jingwei, who collaborated with the Japanese to form a puppet state in occupied China. Drawing on Chinese archives that have only been unsealed in the past ten years, he brings to vivid new life such characters as Chiang’s American chief of staff, the unforgettable “Vinegar Joe” Stilwell, and such horrific events as the Rape of Nanking and the bombing of China’s wartime capital, Chongqing. Throughout, Forgotten Ally shows how the Chinese people played an essential role in the wider war effort, at great political and personal sacrifice.
Forgotten Ally rewrites the entire history of World War II. Yet it also offers surprising insights into contemporary China. No twentieth-century event was as crucial in shaping China’s worldview, and no one can understand China, and its relationship with America today, without this definitive work.

读后感
这本书基本是一本毁三观的书，我们对于近代史的印象太美好，感觉就好像本来的中国挺不错，列强来到了，生活才崩盘。 又太乐观，觉得当年的中国似乎有无数高明的出路可供挑选。 看完这本书，我的想法都放了一放。 开篇就是日本崛起，中国扑街。为什么做国家的差距会这么大，至...
评分这本书正如作者所说，是写给欧美的读者的，故而专业人士读此书的收获不一定很大，学术性不是很强，但是一般的读者可以从中看到抗日战争的全貌，作者的文笔相当好，读起来犹如故事一般引人入胜。需要批评的是此书的制作粗糙，用纸不好，有缺角，且掉纸沫，印刷用墨稍浅，尤其是...
评分黯淡了刀光剑影又渐渐清晰，远去了鼓角铮鸣又轰然作响……基于最新解禁档案，《中国，被遗忘的盟友》（下文简称《盟友》）披露了发生于1937～1945年中国抗日战争史。无数悲天恸地的事件，万千大小人物的命运变迁，共同构成了这部扣人心弦的战争史诗。拉纳·米特，西方新...
评分对我等中国人来说，“抗日战争”实在是一个了无新意的题材：学生时代历史课上的反复灌输，每年数次的强势纪念，以及从“地雷战”到“手撕鬼子”一系列可称“长盛不衰”，充斥屏幕长达数十年的“抗日影片”，都已经让人感觉有点腻歪。以至于看到抗日战争相关题材的书籍时，我的...
评分以其规模之大影响之深发生时间之近，中国战场二战史本最不应被遗忘，但是因为牵涉各当权势力的历史基础和合法性，东亚各种官方解读“罗生门”到极致；因为参与者自身不能严肃对待，加上东西方文化差异，作为旁观者的欧美苏也有意无意地忽视这段历史。或许只有作者印度裔剑桥教...
用户评价
A history that has virtually gone unwritten until now.
评分HI537 对外国人来说是让他们了解中国在二战中的付出的良作 对中国读者而言大体是一个大概的介绍 但里面比较在意的有两个点 其一是美国作为猪队友坑蒋介石 或者说是牺牲了中国的利益为自己更在意的全局/欧洲/自己 其二是有一些小线索反复出现如战地记者 有微观史学之感
评分整本书像超市里卖得速冻包子，表面很软很弹很香，但吃起来有毒啊！呈现了历史的复杂性值得推荐，但大体的见解仍然是极其欧洲中心的、精英权贵式的，作者时不时的在给日本洗地。
评分对蒋颇为同情，或许是用日记的坏处
评分peanut 这个叫法令人印象深刻
