Taiwan's first presidential election, in 1996, sparked a Sino-US military showdown that resulted in the biggest show of US naval force in East Asia since the Vietnam War. This book explores the origins and triangular dynamics of that historic confrontation, analyzing the key decisions and misperceptions that led to the Taiwan Strait crisis.
