Senator Joseph McCarthy examines the life of General George Catlett Marshall, particularly his role in government beginning in 1945 as United States Special Envoy to China, and encompassing his role of Secretary of State in the late 1940's. This book can provide context which is important to a rounded understanding of how Communist China came to be a nation in 1949, and Marshall's crucial role as Secretary of State in its birth. - Summary by Robert L.
