Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Correspondence between Chiang Kai-shek and foreign leaders is the key to understand second world war in Asia. In this grant, I collected the letters and telegrams from Franklin Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin to Chiang. Recently, their documents are open in the internet archives. From these documents, it was revealed that although Chiang was underestimated by them, he wrote many letters to solve China. Most of them are ignored, but his letter sometimes contributed to save the worst of his country. These letters were final weapon for Chiang.
