The spectacular epic in the tradition of NOBLE HOUSE and WINDS OF WAR This classic blockbuster has been hailed as "a triumph of storytelling, " "a spectacular epic in the tradition of James Clavell's NOBLE HOUSE and WINDS OF WAR" and "a sweeping saga of the ’60s generation, told from a unique perspective." Long banned in both Taiwan and Mainland China. Cast out of China by the Communist Revolution of 1949 and arriving on the shores of Taiwan with his penniless ex-taipan father, five-year-old Bryan Whyte grows up on the mean streets of Taipei and rides his family’s Asian gangland connections, the Vietnam War and the Taiwan economic boom of the ’70s to become the most powerful American in Asia. A childhood refugee of the separation of Taiwan from China, Bryan White journeys from the leadership of an American teenage gang in Taiwan to control of a vast, powerful, corrupt, and influential business empire.
