East Asian History

This recently declassified collection represents the most authoritative intelligence assessments of the United States Government and thus constitutes a unique historical record of a momentous era in China's modern history.

Mass education materials published in Hong Kong and in Mainland China, particularly Shanghai, in the years 1947-1954.

Images that document early 20th century China including the the Sino-Japanese Conflict (1937-1945), a visual history of Buddhist practices and temples in China, and other images of daily life in both rural and urban China.

This project aims to locate, archive, and disseminate photographs from the substantial holdings of images of modern China held mostly in private hands overseas.

A full-text image database providing online access to pre-World War II issues of four major government publications.
