Author: HAYWARD, V.
Title: Christians and China.
Description: Belfast: Christian Journals Limited,1974. 1st ed. "This is a book of greater importance than its size might indicate..First, against a well-sketched historical background, it brings us up to date(1974) with the present position of affairs in China. Secondly, while fully appreciative of the undoubted benefits brought about by the Communist regime, it is shrewdly critical of the means used and therefore of the achievements reached by Mao and his followers. Thirdly, it enables us to watch how the Christian Church, squeezed and then driven underground by the regime, continues to exist, generally in small groups meeting under conditions of secrecy.." (Foreword. Rev.Donald Coggan. 1974). Pp.127, slight toning to pages. P/b, mark to title on front. VG.
