Both a memoir and a documentary history of the Chinese revolution from 1949 through the Cultural Revolution, "The Man Who Stayed Behind" is the story of Sidney Rittenberg, an American who was sent to China by the U.S. military and who got caught in the turbulence that engulfed the country until the late 1970s. 16 photos.
First line
The Man Who Stayed Behind is a romance that unfolds at several levels.
From the rear cover
"["The Man Who Stayed Behind"] reads like a riveting historical novel. But there's no fiction here . . . it's Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai, the Long March, solitary confinement, despair, romance, and redemption. Sidney Rittenberg's story is a classic."--Mike Wallace, CBS-TV "60 Minutes"
