520    "This is the first history of the cult of Mao that was 
       fostered by the Communist Party, and used by Mao himself 
       at the height of the Cultural Revolution, to ensure the 
       loyalty of the people"--|cProvided by publisher. 
520    "Mao Zedong's political and cultural legacy remains potent
       even in today's China. There have been many books that 
       have explored his posthumous legacy, but none that has 
       scrutinized the cult of Mao and the massive worship that 
       was fostered around him at the height of his powers during
       the Cultural Revolution. This riveting book is the first 
       to do so. By analyzing previously secret archival 
       documents, obscure objects, and political pamphlets, 
       Daniel Leese traces the tumultuous history of the cult 
       within the Communist Party and at the grassroots level. 
       The Party leadership's original intention was to develop a
       prominent brand symbol, which would compete with the 
       nationalists' elevation of Chiang Kai-shek. They did not, 
       however, anticipate that Mao would use this symbolic power
       to mobilize Chinese youth to rebel against party 
       bureaucracy itself. The result was anarchy, and when the 
       army was called in, it relied on mandatory rituals of 
       worship, such as daily reading of the Little Red Book or 
       performances of 'the loyalty dance' to restore order. Such
       fascinating detail sheds light not only on the personality
       cult of Mao, but also on hero-worship in other 
       traditions."--|cProvided by publisher.
