An Economist Book of the YearA Financial Times Book of the Year "A book that has long cried out to be written." -- Observer (UK), Books of the Year In 1937, two years before Hitler invaded Poland, Chinese troops clashed with Japanese occupiers in the first battle of World War II. Joining with the United States, the Soviet Union, and Great Britain, China became the fourth great ally in a devastating struggle for its very survival. Prizewinning historian Rana Mitter unfurls China's drama of invasion, resistance, slaughter, and political intrigue as never before. Based on groundbreaking research, this gripping narrative focuses on a handful of unforgettable characters, including Chiang Kai-shek, Mao Zedong, and Chiang's American chief of staff, "Vinegar Joe" Stilwell. Mitter also recounts the sacrifice and resilience of everyday Chinese people through the horrors of bombings, famines, and the infamous Rape of Nanking. More than any other twentieth-century event, World War II was crucial in shaping China's worldview, making Forgotten Ally both a definitive work of history and an indispensable guide to today's China and its relationship with the West. "In the manner of David McCullough, Mitter] creates a complex history that is urgently alive." -- Kirkus Reviews

Just what I needed.
Size: 6 Pack
A little on the pricey side, but really sturdy and well made. I needed an odd size set of brackets to fit a shelf in an awkward spot. I wasn't sure I'd find brackets with arms long enough for my needs without using some ugly white hardware-store shelf brackets. These look great, are very heavy duty, and just what I needed. I debated the purchase because of their initial cost, but once I got them I realized their quality warranted the premium price. Overall I'm very happy with them.

Worked Perfectly
Size: 4 Pack
They worked perfectly, I use them to hold a hutch inside a trailer to keep it from moving since it was not gonna be mounted against the wall. I use three of the four of these from the frame of the roof for the trailer down to the top of the hutch and they worked excellent

I recently purchased the ZHEM Valet Tray for Men in Dark Gray, and I couldn't be happier with this product. It's become an indispensable part of my daily routine and home décor.
The design and craftsmanship of this tray are outstanding. The dark gray color is elegant and complements my furniture perfectly. It's not just a valet tray; it's also a decorative piece that adds a touch of sophistication to my nightstand and dresser.
The size (8x8x1.75 inches) is ideal for holding my daily essentials like my watch, perfume, keys, and even napkins. I appreciate the versatility - it serves as a decorative piece, an organizer, and a functional tray all in one!
The quality is top-notch, and it feels sturdy and well-made. It's also easy to clean, which is a big plus.
Overall, the Tray has exceeded my expectations. It's a stylish and functional addition to my décor, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a versatile and attractive tray for their home. Five stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
