    “The Struggles of an Ordinary Man (Volume Two)- The Turbulent History of China Through a Farmer’s Eyes from 1900 to 2000” is the true record of one hundred years of modern history in rural areas of the Eastern Shandong Peninsula from the 1900 to 2000, including the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Anti-Japanese War (1938-1945), China’s War of Liberation (1945-1949), the development of China after liberation (1950-1957), the Great Leap Forward Movement (1958-1959), the Three-year Disaster (1960-1962), the Socialist Education Movement (1964-1965), the Great Cultural Revolution (1966-1976), and the reform and opening up of China (1978-2000).
