Full Description

This book looks at the events of 1989, when thousands of students took to the streets to demonstrate for changes to the rigid way in which their country was governed. Their protests were peaceful and had the support of many ordinary citizens. The main focus of the student protests were Tiananmen Square in Beijing. Then on 4 June, the Chinese government sent in troops. What was the result of the brutal crackdown? How did the rest of the world react? What was its long-term impact on China as a whole? This book answers these questions and many more. Throughout the book moment-in-time panels describe first hand accounts of people actually there - giving a sense of drama and immediacy to the book and really bringing this period to life.
