Interesting book about WW2 in China by Barbara Tuchman called "Stillwell and the American Experience in China"( I think) although mostly about ground fighting. The point the book makes over and over is that both the Nationalist and Communist leaders were preoccupied with fighting one another to the exclusion of cooperating with the Americans and British to defeat the Japanese. The Chinese did some good fighting when they were well led and decently equipped. One mis-conception many people have about the AVG is that they were fighting in China prior to Dec. 7. They actually flew no combat until after Dec.7 and were disbanded in July, 1942.
