Summary
Between 1958 and 1962, China lived through tragedy on an epic scale. The 'Great Leap Forward' conceived by Mao so that China could drive industrial output ahead of Great Britain and achieve autonomy from the might of the neighbouring USSR - led to a catastrophic famine resulting in the death of between 36 and 55 million people.
