That's China: A British entrepreneur versus the Chinese propaganda machine

'One of the better known foreign entrepreneurs of his generation in China.' New York Times

In his bestselling debut, 'China Cuckoo', Mark Kitto described how he 'lost a fortune and found a life in China'. In 'That's China', the thrilling prequel, he tells the story of how he made that fortune. For seven roller-coaster years Kitto outwitted competitors and jealous partners to build the most profitable and popular English language publishing business in China since 1949.

To the Chinese Communist Party, media is state-owned propaganda. No individuals, let alone foreigners, will ever have a stake in it.

No foreigner in modern times has come so close to the heart of the Chinese propaganda machine on his own terms. Not even Rupert Murdoch.

Told with Kitto's trademark self-deprecating humour and unsettling honesty, 'That's China' is a rare thing, a business saga that will have you on the edge of your seat all the way to the final showdown; in the highest law court in China.
