邓小平的最后岁月

This is the first book ever to decipher the last years of Deng Xiaoping's life. It records Deng's twenty-year legend from his tough restoration to the post of Vice-Chairman of the Central Committee in 1977 to his demise from disease in 1997, from which both the historical turning-point splendor and the daily witty humor of a leader, along with his political wisdom and charisma, can be glimpsed to give an authentic reflection of Deng Xiaoping as both a great man and common person. A series of historical facts about the major events are reproduced in the book including Deng Xiaoping's being restored for the last time, obtaining the leadership at the Third Plenary Session of the 11th Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party, visit to South China at 88 years old and negotiations for the return of Hong Kong, some of which are revealed for the first time.
