Note on Romanization and Typographic Conventions

Romanization of personal and place names in this book reflects the forms with which the journalists themselves were familiar. Wade-Giles romanization is used except for generally known place names and where idiosyncratic romanization of particular personal names was prevalent.

Throughout the text the old China hands and scholars speak directly in Roman type. Interpretation and relevant background appear in italics.
