The Upsurge of China
The Upsurge of China is a firsthand account written by Hewlett Johnson—known as the “Red Dean of Canterbury”—documenting his travels and observations in the People’s Republic of China during the early years of the Communist era. Supported by the diaries and drawings of his wife Nowell Johnson and his daughters Kezia and Keren, the book offers a sympathetic portrayal of China’s political and social transformation after 1949. Johnson focuses on economic reforms, social developments, peasant conditions, industrial advances, and the ideological foundations of the new Chinese state. Written from the perspective of a Western visitor who admired socialist experiments, the book provides insight into contemporary international perceptions of Maoist China.
